Hi Diane,
My menopause symptoms started immediately after my last ovary was removed and continued even when I was on HRT.
I do wake up sweating sometimes but I'm always really hot at night. This has been since the surgery - 9 years now.
I have lost some of the weight but, typically, it's all around my middle (my waist is 38 inches). Not only does it look odd as the rest of me is not that big but it puts me in a risk category for heart disease etc. I walk/jog nearly every day and have tried the gym but hated it! I eat small, fairly healthy meals with my family so not sure what else to do. Possibly stress is a factor as I am a parent carer for one of my daughters who has bipolar disorder.
