- Women with BRCA1 and BRCA2 pathogenic variants may experience surgical menopause after RRSO, with previous studies showing increased depressive and anxiety symptoms at 6 and 12 months post-surgery.
- A controlled study tracking 59 women undergoing RRSO and 91 comparison women found that, at 24 months, depressive and anxiety symptoms were not significantly elevated and did not differ between the two groups. However, symptoms at 12 months strongly predicted outcomes at 24 months.
