Progesterone Deficiency?

by Connie
(Ontario, Canada)

I am 35 years old, have had 2 laparotomies to remove a 13cm and an 18cm cystadenoma, as well as the left ovary and tube removed because of the cyst size.

I had the first laparotomy in 2007, got pregnant in 2009 in which I carried my baby and my 18cm cyst to term at the same time, had my baby in January, lithotripsy for kidney stones in March and laparotomy for the cyst in April. I am now having hot, sweaty spells, my mind seems out of it, I could stare at anything for a long time. Around lunch, the symptoms seem to peak and I get anxious, feel like I am in a fish bowl, and most of the time I cry. It is all said and done by 6pm that evening.

Any suggestions to what the cause may be? Low progesterone? I did have some labwork done and my tsh was low at 0.32 and my T4 was also low. Any info would be appreciated, I just want to be normal again!
