Are You Feeling Depressed, Exhausted?

Misdiagnosed? It Might Not Be Depression
Have you been told you’re depressed – but deep down, something doesn’t feel right? Many women are given antidepressants after a hysterectomy or during menopause, often without any proper hormone testing. The symptoms – low mood, emotional shutdown, anxiety, even loss of identity – are very real. But the cause might not be what you were told.
Hormone loss following hysterectomy or early menopause can trigger deep emotional changes. Yet too often, these are mistaken for depression or anxiety. You're not imagining it – and you're not alone. This eBook explores how hormonal changes after surgery can mimic mental illness and why so many women are misdiagnosed or dismissed.
If you've ever questioned your diagnosis or felt let down by the system, this guide will help you understand what's really happening in your body – and how to start getting your life back.
Discover Why It’s Not “All in Your Head”
This honest and practical guide was written by a husband who watched his wife fade away after surgery. What she experienced wasn’t simply depression. It was hormonal chaos – brought on by surgical menopause, ignored by doctors, and buried under prescriptions.
Inside, you'll learn how to recognise the signs of hormone related mood changes, how to get the right blood tests, and how to make sense of the confusion that often follows major surgery like a hysterectomy, or simply feeling disconnected from your emotions, energy, or sex drive. If your desire has faded and no one can explain why, this eBook helps you understand what’s happening in your body. Whether you're early in recovery or years into feeling “not quite right”, it offers real answers for women who’ve been told to just get on with it.
