I'm 37 and in the past three years have had both ovaries removed and been diagnosed with Stage 2C ovarian cancer. I had my appendix and momentum removed and have been clean since. I still have some bleeding even though I am on Birth control pills for hormones. I have noticed that I can't seem to lose any weight. I am extremely active...I crossfit everyday, cycle every other day, run and swim every other day, but still do not see weight loss. I do see results muscle wise, but my belly fat is still high. The surgery has changed a lot of my life, I still enjoy sex, but find myself having to remind myself about having it. LOL I am tired but supplement that with B12 and other vitamins, my bones do feel different but that could just be from the exercise. I will say that having the ovaries gone is emotional, I call it the equivalent of having the testicles removed. It saved my life and my husbands life, because now I can be with him longer. If anyone can tell me how to improve weight loss and fatigue that would be awesome. Prayers for all and remember it's about improving the quality of life!!
