If you mean by complete a total hysterectomy (uterus and cervix) ans a salpingo (fallopian tubes) oopherectomy (both ovaries) then yes you will immediately go into surgical menopause. If one ovaary is left then this will not place you into menopause until nature takes its due course.

No you do not have o take hormones after a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) as you will still have your ovaries which produce the female hormones. If you have your ovaries removed you will go into immediate (surgical) menopause and it is your decision with advice from your medical team as to the advantages/disadvantages of this

This is a personal decision between you and your doctor. There is no real reason you should need these if you retain your ovaries as a total hysterectomy is only the uterus and cervix. If you also have a salpingo oopherectomy then you will have no ovaries to produce the hormones and you should discuss the pros and cons of HRT with you doctor as there are benefits but also a downside.

Hysterectomy is removal of the uterus and unless the ovaries are removed (oopherectomy) the there should be no need for hormone replacement as the ovaries will still produce the estrogen etc. If the ovaries are removed then it very much depends on the individual and how there body and themselves copes without estrogen replacement. You should research the pros and cons of HRT as this is a very individual decision.

How can you get prescribed hormone replacement therapy?

To begin hormone replacement therapy, first you must discuss it with your regular doctor. There are great benefits to this type of therapy, but it isn't for everyone. Your doctor can help you determine if it's right for you or not. Then you will need to see a doctor who specializes in hormone replacement therapy. I strongly recommend that you undergo bioidentical hormone therapy, and avoid synthetic hormones.
