Re: menstruating, post oophorectomy From: D.N.

In reply to: Pam: "menstruating, post oophorectomy" Next in thread: R. Daniel Braun, MD: "Re: menstruating, post oophorectomy" Hi Pam, My story is a bit different than yours. Supposedly I have had everything removed, but during my last surgery they did not get all of my ovary out, so I have ORS (ovarian remant syndrome.) I don't have "periods" per se, but still have cycles that feel like periods (cramps too-but not as bad as with a uterus) and pain from endometriosis. Have you had a transvaginal US or had your estrogen/FSH levels checked? US won't always show a remnant, but if you have a cyst, you will probably be able to see it. Hope this helps. Write back if you have anymore questions. Best wishes, D.N. At Wed, 31 Jul 2002, Pam wrote: > >I have had two surgeries for removal of ovaries, one in 1976 and a >second one in 2000.
