Re: need my ovaries removed but scared to take hormones



What is your doctor suggesting for HRT or HRT alternatives? Have you had a second opinion about having your ovaries removed and what your HRT or HRT alternatives might be?

You might try looking for a doctor who specializes in menopausal issues and ask for some advice on this topic before you make your final decision. Then you could have a plan in place for managing your symptoms in a way that makes you feel comfortable!
