Kiya-I'm sorry you are going through this. When I had my hysterectomy they left my ovaries as being thrown into full menopause all at once was considered dangerous. But they removed my tubes which cuts blood flow to the ovaries and said I would probably be through menopause in 5 years, which is a few months away. I haven't had a hot flash or anything in a long time so I assume it's all over. And that actually makes me more stable than before.
I was very fortunate that my pdoc and gyn were at the same hospital and were able to communicate about what was best for me via email. The mirena was a fail but they did both agree to try it. And they also agreed to stop trying med adjustments and remove it. It also helped me to not be pushed into hormones I knew weren't a good idea, like the pill (which had been a disaster once before).
I hope you can get things to work out. I know how hard it is.
