Future hysterectomy questions

I am scheduled to have a hysterectomy in the fall, due to adenomyosis and my chronic anaemia as a result. The gynaecologist told me he will be leaving my ovaries and because of that I will not need HRT. For those that have had their ovaries left, is this true for you? Did you find out you need some HRT anyways? What was the symptoms like? How soon did you go into menopause? I’m 41, and my bloodwork shows my hormones are not in premenopausal range yet (another thing I’m not even sure if him saying is possible lol).
I’m curious if my sex drive will tank and I’ll need help with lubrication. I currently almost have the opposite problem with a very high drive and lots of lubrication, so of course my husband is asking (all concerned) if that is going to go away.
Thanks
