Female question

Good Evening All:

I have a question to either the menopausal crowd or to our awesome nurse Pam or to any other medical professional out there that might have some thoughts about my upcoming question!!

My observations from today and then thinking back previous months a light bulb went off, which has led to the question I'm getting to.

I've been noticing throughout my weighloss that at least once a month I have a  2-5 pound gain in weight somewhere in the middle of the month.  Then after a week it mysteriously disapears.

This week has been one of those weeks.  Especially today as I was working, I started to get cramps - the kind you get just before your period, I've noticed them other months but paid little attention just made a mental note, however today my CHOCOLATE monster almost had me in the candy store on the first floor this afternoon looking for chocolate.  What kept me out of the candy store was the fear of being at work and dumping - thank God for that fear!!!!

In 2008 I had a hysterectomy, doc took out the uterus left the overies in.  

My question is since my overies are still in - does my body still react as if I were going to get my period - but of course do not because I don't have a uterus?

Thanks in advance for any insights...

Yup they do!  Gotta love the hormones!
Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses.
