Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for sending the question.

I assume that during this hysterectomy operation your doctor or surgeon may have removed your ovaries. If this is the case it can cause significant fluctuation in your overall estrogen balance. This can create significant hot flashes.

I would call your gynecologist to review these symptoms. Your gynecologist may suggest some type of hormone replacement or supplement.

Thanks again for same your question.
