Mood Swings

I had my TLH three months ago and the continued mood swings each month are almost more unbearable than before my surgery. I kept my ovaries so I knew I'd go through alot of the same PMS symptoms as if I still had my period but I almost become an evil person! It's awful! Has anyone else experienced this? I already take Zoloft and take a little bit higher dose at these times but it doesn't help.

Penny,
Unfortunately, a hysterectomy is not a cure for PMS. If you're still having PMS like symptoms, your ovaries are probably working. If the mood swings are unbearable, do talk with your doctor.

I've been on Lexapro for several years now and that helped my mood swings. I had my ovaries removed with this surgery and I'm even calmer now.
