Hello!
Thanks for your query.
Complete hysterectomy is accompanied with the removal of ovaries and for these reason you are as the menopausal women(lack of hormones).
Hormonal changes of menopause might make you more likely to weight gain around your abdomen than around your hips and thighs.
Stomach bloating be from excess gas or from the weight gain in the hole body.
You can reverse your course by paying attention to healthy-eating diet and leading active life style.
Take care of you
