Hormones?

Do we need hormones?

One would think so...since we have them.....although they diminish(as most everything does) over time...sooo it begs the question of what about when they vanish suddenly?

I think the Dr.s thought I knew more than I did.....the problem is I don't.  I steadfastly remained on the river DeNial about hysterectomies.   I was absolutely convinced that it was not something I would ever need to deal with b/c the risk is actually relatively low even with BRCA2...and so I truly never looked into it at all...AT ALL.  So three and a half weeks ago when I was presented with the limited options for what they would let me keep or not keep...I went with what the drs recommended and what in the long run seemed the most sensible....I didn't even google.....

I have since googled.....it is scary.....I don't really want to know ALL the risks or possible side effects....I just wanted to know what to expect for a recovery...how long....what to do..or not do....what I should be feeling....I need a manual dang nabit!!!!  I read those things yanno...sigh.  Oh and don't forget..you might want/need hormones....

When?????   How do I know????  What if I don't????  What if I have already gone off the deep end and we don't even know????? (okay...yeah that last one made me laugh cuz I'm pretty sure we'd ALL know;) )  But seriously....this hormone thing is ...weird to me....my hormones have been so all over the place since chemo that I'm not even truly sure what normal is....and what if normal is the leveling out that not having whackadoodle all over the place hormones is.... but like everything else too....hair....some place but not others????wha????? WHERE is the manual?????  Seriously......
