No menopause after ovary, uterus, cervix removal?

[EndoslEctomy]

Is there anyone out there in their early 40s or earlier years that had their ovaries, uterus, cervix(everything) removed and did NOT go through menopause??  Is this normal??  Doctor not concerned.

I did not word that correctly, yes it is a lack of symptoms.  I saw my doctor yesterday and she was surprised but not concerned.  It just seems weird.

I am also not on any hormone therapy treatments

I'd like to say that I'd just go with it and not worry, but I think I'd ask for hormone level testing. Maybe you're just lucky, but maybe something else is happening. I'd want to know for sure.

I agree that it seems weird. At under 40, your body is producing a lot of estrogen, and most of it comes from the ovaries. To have that supply suddenly cut off is usually noticeable. I felt the difference in the hospital, even while on the pain pump. (My surgery was 20 years ago - your experience may have been different.)

It may be nothing. I'd want to know.

I had a totally hysterectomy and both ovaries out in 2006 when I was 31. I didn’t take hormones for 10 years and had no menopausal symptoms or issues. I started to have hot flashes at 41 years old.  My estrogen tanked and then I started hormones.
