Monthly cycles after Hysterctomy - what to expect?
Hello,
I had a an LSH on March 5th of this year. I kept everything but the actual uterus. Every month I get the same feelings I got when my cycle was due before the surgery, Tender breasts, the munchies, sleeplessness, achiness, here is the kicker, what feels like very minor cramping. When I had a uterus, my cramps were severe, but they always extended down into the tops of my legs...so now, I get mild aches that extend from my lower abdomen to the tops of my thighs and even into my crotch area....same area as my cramps were...it is very mild, but is it normal? Are these phantom cramps? Will I continue to experience cycle symptoms until menopause?
Dont have a support system to ask, thought someone here might have an answer...
