You will go into surgically-induced menopause. You may have symptoms of menopause just like people experiencing regular menopause - mood swings, hot flashes, irritability, etc. Doctors may prescribe hormones. But, there are herbal remedies available that are much better and have less side effects. You may wish to try those first to see how they work. Some women don't experience any side effects of the menopause I mentioned above. Other women experience these severely. Should be be concerned? Just talk to your surgeon/gynecologist and they will answer your questions. There is an excellent website www.hystersisters.com. I went there before my hysterectomy and it is an excellent source of support and answered a lot of my questions. Lots of luck.
