Perimenopause

Can surgery bring on perimenopause symptoms? I've two cysts removed, one in each ovary and both had to be dissected to remove the cyst's and I wondered if this affects hormone levels.

Sure, it will for a little while, until your body settles down from the surgery.  Your body needs to heal and the ovaries will kick in and do their job.  Just give it a little time.

Thanks Tascha, I wasn't sure since they weren't actually removed just chopped up a litte.

They tend to shut down when that is done.  But believe me they do wake up!
