Hi, I'm Tami. I had a hysterectomy 20 years ago. I think I have gone through menopause 3 times now. I just don't know what is normal and quite frankly I'm not sure the doctors do either.

Hi Sassy, I dont know if you can go through menopause more than one time. I think that when you first have a hysterectomy, your hormones get thrown off balance. If it was a total hysterectomy then they are really out of wack!

If you still have your ovaries, then they slowly stop producing hormones and make you go through a menopause again.

I had a partial hysterectomy in 2005. Then due to cysts in my pelvic area, they removed one of my ovaries. The other one must have been bad because I went through wicked menopause symptoms!

I hope that you are feeling better! If there is anything I can do, please let me know. You can PM me anytime.

Your Friend, Chris
