Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had a hysterectomy 3 years ago and was put on estragen. My doctor is recommending going off of it. I want to know what will happen when I go off of it. Will I gradually start to go through menopause or will I immediately start feeling the effects?
It depends on whether the ovaries were removed as well. f yes in that case you will experience some hot flashes. Your bones will experience weakening for which you should take one vitamin d sachet every month and you should work out a bit.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Ankit
