After being told that I don't need a blood test to check my hormones as after my hysterectomy I was left my ovaries, a new dr has agreed for me to get them checked. As before I said that I'm on vagifem I'm getting very bad tempered I'm finding it difficult to loose weight and my breast are tender a lot of the time. Has anyone got any advice on any of the above weight loss or why breast tenderness

Thanks 😊

Hi and welcome to mm Macdonz

Ovaries often die off quicker after a hysterectomy so checking oestrogen and FHS levels would be wise to see if you are oestrogen deficient.
A bit of transdermal oestrogen might well be appropriate.
As for weight gain - I'm afraid this is common when meno starts and I'm afraid it's about eating less and exercising more.
Tender breasts are a common in the peri meno phase - it'll probably be because you are getting months when you aren't ovulating. DG x

Thanks for the info. I'm getting my bloods done on Thursday, just fed up with one thing after another
