I’m so sorry you find yourself in this situation.

Most of the information given re radical hysterectomy confirm that the ovaries and Fallopian tubes are removed, but I did find this..

Copied from ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

Partial (supracervical) hysterectomy: The main body of the womb is removed. The cervix, fallopian tubes and ovaries remain in place.

Total (complete) hysterectomy: The womb and the cervix are removed. The fallopian tubes and ovaries remain in place.

Radical hysterectomy: A radical hysterectomy involves removing the womb and cervix, the nearby part of the vagina and parts of the supporting tissues – and sometimes also the fallopian tubes, ovaries and pelvic lymph nodes.

Other than that, is it possible another diagnosed condition is causing ‘overlapping symptoms’..
