Hysterectomy is a surgical process of removing the uterus by a small cut in your lower abdomen. It is a common surgery for various types of conditions affecting the female reproductive system. Also, it ends your potential to conceive.
A partial hysterectomy removes only the uterus, leaving the cervix intact while a total hysterectomy removes both the uterus and cervix.
At times a hysterectomy involves the removal of one or both ovaries along with the fallopian tubes, a surgery called total hysterectomy with salpingo-oophorectomy.
Following are the causes for which you need a hysterectomy:
- Fibroids
- Heavy Bleeding during periods
- Endometriosis
- Severe Pelvic Pain
- Gynecologic Cancer
