Plenty of people have given this OP genuine advice, but at this point, it really does feel like someone trolling us. Please let us know whether we should keep encouraging her to see a doctor / visit the ER or if we are just spinning our wheels on a nuisance poster.

Strange situation. I love calling out trolls when I am sure they are trolls. Occasionally, there are cases when I'm either not sure, or I am sympathetic toward the poster and don't really want to call them a troll. In this case, the poster has started some earlier threads on "women's topics" about which I have no expertise and little knowledge at all. But, despite my ignorance, the threads don't seem consistent to me. So, let me ask you, would you find it strange for one poster to:

1) ask for input about a hysterectomy;
2) ask about day 3 results for AMH three days after asking about the hysterectomy;
3) ask what would cause weight loss 12 days after the second thread.

In my view, a woman considering a hysterectomy would not simultaneously be worrying about her fertility. But then, I run a website not an ob/gyn office. Similarly, I'd expect someone who has apparently been spending quite a bit of time in doctors' offices discussing hysterectomies and getting blood tests to be a bit more resourceful when faced with significant weight loss.

So, you guys can make the call.
