    Hi Michelle

    Ive experienced this for past 2 years (as well as other symtoms...dizziness, short of breath, anxiety, insomina) its does sound like menopause. (If you are otherwise healthly have no medical history of other issues) I recently went to a specialist to have a hormone blood count , they determined the 4 key hormones were at zero level, so just started bio hormones which I'm praying will help.

    Would highly recommend you getting a hormone specific blood test if you can...it's taken me 2 years of suffering to finally realise it's menopause after that test.

    Good luck

    Well, if they had a hysterectomy, were their ovaries removed or retained.  If they were retained, then they very well could be going through menopause.

    Hope this helps!
