Re: hysterectomy & PCOS From: Valerie (anonymous@obgyn.net) Mon, 25 Mar 2002 22:44:10 -0600 (CST) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Christy: "PCOS symptoms" Previous message: cw: "Diabetes and Exercise" In reply to: anonymous: "Re: hysterectomy & PCOS" Next in thread: Maggie: "Re: hysterectomy & PCOS" You can (and most probably will) have problems from your PCOS long after a hysterectomy... remember the ovaries have recently been found to be only a symptom of the syndrome... the real problem seems to be the insulin resistance which is not going to get better without your ovaries because your ovaries don't cause the problem... unfortunately, alot of women (including my own mother and two aunts) had an increase in the severity of symptoms of PCOS following hysterectomies...sorry to bring bad news...best of luck to you. -- ValerieC >> >>I feel foolish asking this question but, I had a hysterectomy Dec. 7, >>2001 but can you still have the problems of PCOS. or am I just paranoid >>that I am unable to lose weight & my facial hair has returned? I am 41 >>years old. > >Really good question, I had a hyst in 99 and they took my ovaries too >(uterine cancer), and I thought that I could not have PCOS anymore since >I have no ovaries?
