Call the office or clinic that did your procedure and speak to them.

You need to get yourself to a free clinic. To find one near you, call your local social services board. They should be able to provide you with some resources. I am sorry to hear that you are going through such a tough time right now. Make some calls today, and get back to good health!

See if you can find a Planned Parenthood. They work on a sliding scale for those without insurance or funds. It sounds like you're in great need of some hormones. Simply taking the right type of birth control pill may help -although you may need something stronger to make up for that ovary and anything the tubal may be causing. Regardless, you need to see a doctor. How did you pay for the ovary removal and tubal? Use a medical assistance option or something -but see a doctor. You could also have thyroid issues going on that are causing some of those problems.

Hi, A.:
Go to your city's health department.
See about getting your thyroid checked by a
blood test.
Good luck.

Are there any free clinincs near you. I know alot of them have been shut down because of lack of funding. To me it sounds like something is wrong with your hormones, and you should really get it checked.
