Does Ovulation stop after a hysterectomy
I know it's a stupid question but who else could I ask but my hystersisters? Does ovulation stop after a hysterectomy because the menstrual cycle stops?

Does Ovulation stop after a hysterectomy
Sometimes the ovaries go into shock for a brief period following a hyster but will generally start back with ovaulation within a few weeks maybe months following the surgery. Mine shut down for about 6 weeks, then started back up. After my RSO the left ovary took over ovulation every month within 2 weeks following the surgery. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Naw. Thanks for the answer. Now I have another question. Because I no longer have a uterus, where do the eggs go?

Does Ovulation stop after a hysterectomy
the eggs don't make it to the fallopian tubes each month anyway..otherwise there would be way more children in the world. your body has been re-absorbing those eggs for years. now it will simply re-absorb all the eggs you produce. :-) hope that helps. (i had the same question...had a vision of the poor egg making it to the fallopian tube, sliding down the tube like a water slide....wheeee...and getting to end wondering where the big cushy thing was it heard so much about! yes, i have too active an imagination!)
if you have no ovaries, no ovulation.

I'm glad about that. Whew!
I was thinking about ecoptic pregnancy since I kept one of my ovaries and tube so I was thinking the egg made it to the fallopian tube, but if it doesn't even make it to the tube I have no problem.

Does Ovulation stop after a hysterectomy
I am so glad someone asked this question. I am 3 mo post op and have had lower back and abdominal pain for about a week now. I even had spotting for about a two days. I called my doctor and was told that since I have my ovaries the pain is probably from ovulating! Blah! No real answer about the bleeding. Just to watch and make sure it doesn't increase. However, I am still concerned about this ovualtion thing. The doc said if I had pain with ovualtion BEFORE the surgery I will most likely continue to have it. WHAT IS THAT ABOUT? Anyone have any similar situations????? Especially the bleeding!!!

Does Ovulation stop after a hysterectomy
if you still have your cervix, you may be having mini-periods. there is no way to make a clean cut between the cervix and the uterus so some uterine cells remain behind. some of the women who still have their cervix, get mini-periods so this may be what you are experiencing. otherwise, i've got no guess.

Nope, no cervix! hmmmm I don't know either. I do know that I experienced the back and abdominal pain a few days after a vigorous walk but I had done this numberous times before. I will just have to wait this out. I just don't like the lower back pain, motrin doesn't seem to be doing anything for it. Maybe I need a chiropractor!!!
Thanks
