Will menopause occur immediately after hysterectomy without ovary removal?
1 month ago
Meri aunt ki hysterectomy hone wali hai but ovaries remove nahi kar rahe. Ghar mein sab bol rahe hain ki periods ke saath menopause bhi immediately ho jayega. Isme actually kya hota hai?

If the ovaries are not removed during a hysterectomy, menopause does not occur immediately — the ovaries continue to produce hormones as before. However, periods will stop since the uterus is removed. Natural menopause will still occur at its usual age when the ovaries eventually stop functioning on their own. It is a common misconception that hysterectomy alone causes menopause; your doctor can clarify this further based on your aunt’s specific case.
