Menopause
Stephanie D asked:


I had a partial hysterectomy about 4 years back and went through menopause supposedly but i have been having hot flashes, mood swings and such. So I wondered if u can go through menopause a second time if the first one u went through was surgical.

    Menopause is technically the moment in time when you have not had a period for 12 consecutive months.

    You are surgically menopausal.

    What you are experiencing is falling hormone levels from your ovaries failing. This is not called menopause, it’s just the yucky symptoms of hormone imbalance.
