I'm close to 40, I have very bad PMS, I'm even suicidal , it's been year of deep depression, I can't live like this.  I used med for that but don't really work.  I heard a Hysterectomy can help for that.  Is anyone got PMS free with that.  Hopefully hear from you soon.

    LiliRose if you are not comfortable with your doctor go to a female dr to discuss your options. Or go to a female clinic they may be more understanding. You have to help yourself and get the professional help you need. What works for one person may not work for the next person. We are all very individual each persons reaction to things is very different. You need to go and talk to a professional. Hope everything works out for you. 🌻🌻🌻

    Thanks Maxine.smile. I have a female doctor, it just that last time I went she said she could not help me with my PMS, she could only increase my dose of Paxil,  my dose was increase but that don't work.  When she didn't told me that hysterectomy could help me, may be coz it to extrem.  I kinda hopping that hysterectomy is the answer for my PMS for my depression and anxiety and once I had the operation I can finally live.  I'm afraid she she said no way it to big of an operation just for PMS and I will have to handle the depression and anxiety again.

    LilIRose it is not easy   but having a hysterectomy is a big thing as I have had uterine cancer and had to have a radical hysterectomy . There are a lot of changes that happen to you with hormones and emotions and you may have found this could compound your problems with depression and anxiety.i Have also suffered from anxiety I feel your pain but I cannot emphasise enough you need to go to a physiologist or physchatrist to get the help for your depression and anxiety. Please follow through on this. Good luck regards Maxine 🌼🌼🌼

      LiliRose it depends on what type of hysterectomy you have if it is only the removal of the womb you probably wouldn't have a great deal of hormone changes but if you have a full hysterectomy with removal of Fallopian tubes and ovaries as I did you will automatically start with symptoms of change of life, hit flushes mood swings etc. I can't stress enough that you really need to get your anxiety and depression under control before you go down the road of elective hysterectomy and I am surprised your doctor didn't discuss all of this with you. Good luck. 🌼🌼
