Harmone supplements

by nanacindy51, Apr 09, 2008 02:50PM
My question is.   I have had a total hysterectomy with one ovary removed  over 15 years ago.  Approx 1 yr ago I had a benign lg mass removed with my other ovary.   I currently do not take any harmones because they stated that they can cause these masses.   I have hot flashes especially at night but sometimes during the day and yes stress makes them worse.  I can live with the hot flashes BUT I want to know if it is not healthy for me to not have the harmone supplement.   Does my body need them??  

Thank you for your time

I don't know that you need them. My mom has not taken any hormones for years. She took them in the beginning for a few years but then went off them and has done just fine other then a hot flash here and there. I had my hysterectomy in July 07, and currently am taking HRTs to give my body time to adjust to no uterous. I do plan to go off them after a while, but not sure when that will be yet. Maybe a year or two.
