Experiences with

Ovary removal

Hello Ladies, I have recently had both of my ovaries removed in a NHS hospital. the operation went fine and they were removed through keyhole surgery. After the operation I found that my Virgina was very sore and the nurse had said something was inserted in to during the operation. The ovaries

I am 45 and had a total abdominal hysterectomy with ovary removal 2 weeks ago and am waiting to hear the pathology results for the Stage and next treatment steps.

hi, I’m after some advice pls. I have severe endo and adenmyosis. I’ve had a son and wont be having more children. The gynae has advised doing a full hysterectomy and removal of both ovaries. Can anyone tell me how the recovery is, when I would expect to be back working at my desk job? Did it help you

I had bith ovaries and tubes removed almost 6 weeks ago, i keep getting aches and pains in my groin area, has anyone else had the same problem?

Have had full hysterectomy with bilateral ovary removal. Have endometriosis and adenymosis. Still having endo pain symptoms. Have been told it’s not a gynae issue. Pelvic nerve pain is severe. There is no endo specialist in Northern Ireland.

My other option is to have a full hysterectomy, including removal of the remaining ovary and fallopian tube. That’s a lot of background; probably too much.

The consultation before that also were suggesting bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy or left ovary removal. Were suggesting both in case it came to the other side!! Couldn't see point in getting rid of a perfectly good ovary on left..anyway found that all a bit drastic.

I was sent to think about ovary removal, and I’ve planned to go ahead with this also. Just wondering if anyone has any advice or preparing and recover? Useful things to pack/purchase? thanks in advance

Hi ladies I'm struggling. I had my op almost exactly a year ago and chemo finished in June. Scan showed NED, but was soooo tired (and bloated, with pelvic pains that have now stopped) that come October I was given another scan, NED again. However, I am so tired I cannot function. I feel like I have

I had a hysterectomy in February for Adenomyosis and Fibroids. They said I didn't have Endo following a laparoscopy, mri and ultrasound. I have always had very painful periods and ovulation pains. Scans have always been clear. My pelvic pain has been considerably worse the past 3 years. Last year I was

Hi Warriors, Hope you’re all having a good day. I’m very lucky to have a supportive GP who is really interested in helping women who suffers/suffered with endo (like myself), I had an appointment the other day and was talking about alternatives to Tibolone, I’ve been on it since Nov 2019 after my Oophorectomy

Hi all. I had a call from the hospital yesterday to provisionally book me in for my Laparoscopic unilateral salpingo oopherectomy (what a mouthful) for this Saturday (I have a 7cm x 5cm Endometrioma on the left). It should be day surgery I believe. This process has been so quick as when I saw the consultant

Morning all,I have DIE and had surgery in 2016 to diagnose it. It was starting to go into my bowel and was wrapped around my appendix etc. I'm on the waiting list for hysterectomy/oophorectomy and endo excision ( over a year wait). I'm struggling and I'd really appreciate your opinion. I've had X4 lots

Morning!I had an mri done some months ago,OA in the 5 lumbar vertebrae,bone spurs and a small cyst right hip joint. I asked for a referral to discuss treatment plan, mainly regarding any painkiller etc( also to discuss what this cyst is) At our gps we are sent a choice of possible places to book in.

Hi all, I'm booked in for a total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy next month and wondered if anyone will check my hormone levels as part of the follow up? I've been on Prostap injection for 2months now (due my 3rd this week) and have gained a stone already. I read that a surgical

Hi, I'm on my 4th month of Decapetyl injections. I'm due to be reviewed by Consultant on 23/9. I'm currently listed for ' full pelvic clearance' due to DIE. I'm 47 and have been fortunate to have X3 children. The reason for messaging is two fold.1) How many of you have had both hysterectomy and oophorectomy

I am in surgical menopause - 5 months in with 2 more to go before my hysterectomy. These last couple of weeks all my Endo pains seem to be creeping back in. Even the back pain and while going to the loo. Really hating it. My question is - anyone else had this? Is it wearing off?? They will have much

hi, i found this site when researching this and i just need to figure out if what im experiencing is normal. when i was 17, i had regular hospital trips due to being in agony. Doctors first told me i had a urine infection and sent me home. The second time, nothing came of it but i was told to come back

Hi everyone. So long story short, I’ve had endo for 13 years, 10 laparoscopies and partial bladder removal (due to endo perforating the bladder wall). Latest MRI and appointment shows it’s back sitting next to bladder so that mean laparoscopy number 11. My consultant today though suggested I consider

Hi, I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid earlier this year. I am currently taking 25mg T4 (50mg caused significant bloating) and 30mg T3 as split doses. I'm on a high dose of adrenal support as my Cortisol & DHEA were shown to be very low in a Dutch test earlier this year. Since starting T3
