Hysterectomy is really a hard thing for most women to deal with; both physically and emotionally. The doc’s say you are “healed” in 6 weeks…Yeah, right! It really takes more like 6 months to a year to feel back to “normal”…Which really means her finding a new normal.
Give her time, understanding and care. I am sure she is still emotionally and physically drained. It took me almost a year before I got my energy back; it was just an exhausting experience all the way around.
If she has been put into surgical menopause from the surgery; she may eventually need to get on some type of hormone replacement; either thru perscription or natural. Some women choose not to do hormone replaement because of other underlying issues.
We girls are just hard wired differently than you guys and getting the right balance of hormones can take time. They don’t call it the “hormone jungle” for nothing!
Please talk with your wife and keep those lines of communication open. I also suggest that you both visit a web site called Hyster Sisters. There is a lot of help and support for women there; and you might find some insight as well. Best wishes to you both. And don’t forget to treat her like the princess she is.

If your wife had her ovaries removed, she might need hormone replacement therapy. I would advocate for bioidentical hormones as opposed to the “traditional” drug therapy of Premarin or Prempro. If her ovaries are intact then it might be more emotional than physical. Take your time with her. She might be unsure of her feminity/physical attractiveness. Work up to the event slowly…if you know what I mean. She needs to know that she is still a vital and attractive female.
