Hi Sharon,

I will be having a hystserectomy after my chemo is finished (I'm 28). I am currently on a drug called Lupron that has shut down my ovaries so I have the symptoms of menopause now. There is a drug called Gabapentin that helps the hot flashes. There are also drugs to reduce bone loss due to osteoperosis. Best of luck to you!
