Has this surgery thrown any of you ladies into early menopause?

I am 39, had WLS 11/1/05, Lost 133 lbs, plastic surgery (TT & Breast Lift) on 10/18/06, everything has been great no complications whatsoever from either surgery. Since the WLS I have had no sex drive at all, was told by my surgeon that it would return, it still has not, went and saw my PCP today and she is leaning towards either early menopause or depression. Personally, I don't feel that it is depression, I feel just wonderful and dont seem depressed. But reading up on menopause, I do seem to have quite a few symptoms, my periods have messed up since surgery, they are super heavy for 3 days and them just stop and they are not consistent, they have been out of whack for 14 months now. Low sex drive, (or should I say NO sex drive), I have had the night sweats recently, (not sure why.. I havent been sick or anything) So they are testing my hormone levels, thyroid , doing a pelvic CT scan.. but I was just curious to know if any of you ladies ended up with early menopause due to the surgery? Thanks for any advice....
