Answers:
I was 30 when I had to have a hysterectomy!. If I'm understanding you correctly, you've didn't have your ovaries removed so you should have no problem with hormone levels; however, you may want to have your doc test your hormones!.

There shouldn't be any reason why you are not feeling whole!. You are whole; some things you didn't need anymore are gone!. Since you had a voluntary tubal, your uterus would not have been used anymore--except for menstrual periods which were giving you trouble anyway!. I have lupus so I understand the pain of Fibromyalgia which could be making you somewhat depressed!.

How we "feel as women" after hysterectomies is also a little bit of a "head thing" and we CANNOT listen to other women and old wives tales about "not being women anymore!." YES, we are still 100% woman!. If necessary, get some counseling from a really good female counselor!. Start doing things for you that make you feel more feminine!.

Remember it takes about a year for the body to fully recover from major surgery!.!.!.

Again, I had mine at 30!. I'm nearly 56 and I have felt GREAT since the first week I returned home from the hospital!. As sore as I was I remember how I felt!.

God bless you!.
