Relief from menstrual cycle related flare-ups?
I know both from this forum and another I'm a part of that most women with MG notice flare-ups that correlate with ovulation & menstruation.
I had thymectomy in summer 2014. Took about 18 months before I was mostly medication free. Since then I only have symptoms and have to take pyridostigmine a few days per month, always specific to my menstrual cycle. My primary care is recommending I consult with a gynecologist about hysterectomy with oophorectomy as a means to reduce frequency/intensity of the flare-ups.
Just wondering if anyone has experience with cycle related symptom reduction/relief after oophorectomy?
