Okay, so you did have your uterus removed also.
You may want to do some research on Bio Identical hormones. Ask your Dr if he/she prescribes them. If they don't, you can probably find a Dr in your area that does. Take care. Remar

So you were able to keep the other ovary? What about your uterus?
I would think with having one ovary and your uterus, if you have that, you probably don't need hormones.
If you do notice mood swings or hot flashes then you can talk to your Dr, but I really don't think your going to have problems with those things.
Are you feeling alright? How did your surgery go? Let us know and take care. Remar
