Had A Complete Hysterectomy, Removed Ovaries, Uterus, Cervix. Feel Clammy, Damp. On Levothyroxin. Thyroid Normal. Suggestions?

I had a complete hysterectomy over two years ago - everything out ovaries, uterus, cervix. About 2 and 1/2 months ago I started feeling "clammy" all over 24 hours a day. Any clothing I put on feels damp. I am on Levothyroxin and checked in the normal range for thyroid. I am also using vaginal premarin. I hate feeling damp ( though my skin isn't actually damp) all the time.

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Vaginal preparing is usually used to prevent thinning of vaginal mucosa, to maintain normal state of the mucosa.
Also it will maintain moisture over there.
Your feeling of dampness could be a side effect of the cream.
So you once consult gynecologist, get examined to find out the exact cause of the problem.
If the cause is cream, you can stop using the cream for few days. If any other cause like infection diagnosed, you can take treatment related to that.
Take care.
