I had partial hysterectomy and am having pregnancy symptoms!

I had partial hysterectomy a year ago. I’m 30 now. What I’m concerned about is that am having pregnancy symptoms. I don’t say that I wouldn’t like it…I’m scared to have home test. My stomach is hard and I feel cramping. I’m tired all the time and even have difficult breathing. I’m scheduled t my gyn’s in 4 days.

I also had partial hysterectomy when was 26. I was told that I still could conceive but with increased risk of ovarian or tubal pregnancy. I have the same symptoms like you; I have gained weight and feel pressure in my low stomach. I’m glad no being the only one. I know that these symptoms may indicate something much worse than pregnancy and that makes me more concerned. I’ll schedule at my gyn’s too.

You cannot become pregnant if you've had a partial or total hysterectomy. If your doctor told you that you could conceive, then you probably had a bilateral oophorectomy, which is the removal of one or both ovaries, or possibly a salpingo-oophorectomy, which is the removal of the fallopian tube(s) in addition to an ovary or ovaries. Since tubal pregnancies can be life-threatening, hopefully that wasn't the case in your situation.

Meanwhile, pseudocyesis is a condition in which a non-pregnant woman believes that she is pregnant, even though there is no physical evidence of pregnancy. Also referred to as pseudopregnancy, women with pseudocyesis will often experience real pregnancy symptoms. Pseudocyesis occurs in one to six of every 22 000 births in the United States.

Lastly, it is common for perimenopausal, postmenopausal and after hysterectomy women to have low levels of pituitary (not the usual source) hCG produced. The ovaries keep the pituitary hCG in check, but when they stop working or are removed, then the pituitary hCG will occur.

I had a partial hysterectomy last year and they left my ovaries. My tubes are done and I am having pregnancy symptoms like I did with my 3 pregnancies. What can cause this?

I also had a partial hysterecomy just a few years ago and they left my ovaries. I am now experiencing the same pregnancy symptoms that I did with my last two pregnancies. I would also like to know what causes this.

I am not sure where you got your facts on this, but you may want to research your facts again. There have been cases where women have become pregnant without a uterus. Usually it will self-abort and the women will not even know she was pregnant. In rare cases, the fertilized egg has attached itself to other organs and therefore, puts the mother's life in immediate danger. You may want to read up.
