Is It Normal To Experience Cramping Post Oophorectomy And Will It Subside After Taking Prometrium?
Hello, I am currently on Vivelle Dot 1mg patch, and have not started the Prometrium 200mg which my Dr. wants me to begin next month. It has been 3months post op oophorectomy . I am experiencing a lot of cramping recently, is this normal and will it subside once I begin the Prometrium? Thank you

Hello,
It is a postoperative pain and it is quite common after any surgical intervention. However in your case the pain persists for months so, conditions like pelvic inflammatory disease(PID) must be ruled out.
Consult a gynaecologist and get evaluated. An ultrasound scan is required for further assessment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
