What Causes Lack Of Libido Along With Weight Gain Post Hysterectomy?

I had a hysterectomy 2 years ago. I m 58 years old. Between July and November I gained 16 pounds. I have no desire to have sex and I don t sleep well. My thyroid was checked and it s fine. I exercise regularly and have a very healthy diet. I am extremely frustrated. I discussed this with my fiction and she checked the thyroid and then moved on. Could it be related to the hysterectomy?
