if someone has an hysterectomy then will they still have PCOS? serious questions only!!?

Answer 1

I'm copying this answer for you on a search I did.. but it pretty much states that yes, you can still have PCOS with a hysterectomy. If they don't remove your ovaries during a hysterectomy, then you can still have all the same problems you had before.

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome/Disorder is a disorder of the endocrine system. While one of the symptoms can be polycystic ovaries, it is only one of many symptoms. Some women have polycystic ovaries, but do not have PCOS, while other women have PCOS yet do not have polycystic ovaries.

An oophorectomy will obviously put an end to polycystic ovaries by removing them. It will not alter the other symptoms, which can include insulin resistance. If you were suffering from other symptoms before your surgery, they will remain after your surgery. One possible exception is that since the ovaries produce up to 60% of your body’s testosterone, when they are removed, it may be enough of a decrease in androgens to no longer cause unpleasant side affects.

Answer 2

That pretty much depends. I had my uterus, both ovaries, cervix out. I do not have PCOS. If you haven't had your ovaries removed you still will have PCOS. If you have you're ovaries still in you should be thankful, because I got to go thru Menopause twice, once when I had a natural menopause and then since there were no hormones produced after the operation, I went thru menopause again.

Answer 3

if a complete hysterectomy is done (ovaries, uterus...all the goodies), then no i dont believe pcos will still be there. if just the uterus is removed, then yes, pcos is possible.
