Had Hysterectomy, Feels Weak, Headache And Dizzy. Will Progesterone Cream Help?
I have had a hysterectomy about 7 years ago and I had virtually no problems with this until recently I have had a huge loss of energy, headaches and dizziness . I was wondering if a Progesterone Cream might help with this?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is unlikely that your present symptoms are related to your hysterectomy 7 years ago.
There are different possible causes for your symptoms such as:(1) menopause- if the ovaries were retained, it is possible that you are experiencing menopausal symptoms. The progesterone would not help but estrogen replacement might.
(2)anemia
(3) thyroid disease
(4)electrolyte disturbance
(5)infection
You may want to consider visiting your doctor for an assessment to determine the cause.
I hope this helps
