Not Explainy McInfodump! It's good to know what info everyone has.
If she had a complete hysterectomy including ovaries, yes, it should be fairly obvious to a close observer within a few years - skin elasticity, breast shape/firmness and texture/thickness are affected, as well as muscle strength and bone strength. It also means a higher risk of heart attack and stroke. Menopause symptoms start immediately. I just can't see the Red Room doing this when they've trained them so thoroughly.
If she still has ovaries, the effect is usually much slower, more like a normal menopause, but she has a 50% chance of undergoing menopause (chemically defined, not by the usual "no periods in a year" of course) within four years and an 90% chance within 10 years. 8% of women undergo menopause immediately even with one or both ovaries left intact. A small percentage go through menopause and then their ovaries spontaneously start working again for no apparent reason. So she could have had this procedure and not had menopause, but again I think the odds of the Red Room doing this as a standard procedure are fairly low.
And do I think the movie writers thought about this for more than two seconds? Nope!
