Answer 1

If ovaries are not removed, you can't go through menopause bcz of the surgery. Only when you come to the age.
I have this website for inexpensive breast surgery but it is in Argentina. See if it is useful to you-

Other sites are-

www.bcx.net/hypnosis/breastaug.html - This one deals with some self hypnosis, if you believe in it.
Good luck!

Answer 2

menopause starts because ovaries stop producing female hormones..periods are not the only thing it regulates...if u have ur uterus removed,thats already stopped

In women who have no uterus and therefore have no periods, post-menopause can be determined by a blood test which can reveal the very high levels of FSH or Follicle Stimulating Hormone typical of post-menopausal women.

The ovaries are the essential organs; they are endocrine glands and produce hormones. Because of this, removal of the uterus, hysterectomy, does not itself cause menopause, although pelvic surgery can sometimes precipitate a somewhat earlier menopause perhaps because of a compromised blood supply to the ovaries. Removing the ovaries however, causes an immediate and powerful surgical menopause, even if the uterus is left intact.


The clinical features of menopause are caused by lessening amounts of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone in the woman's body.

With the reduction, you can get it covered by insurance since you are complaining of back pain. Mine covered it 100%.
