  • Cancer of the uterus, cervix, or ovaries, is one
    of the most obvious reasons for a woman to take
    hysterectomy.
  • Among the non-cancerous reasons, painful uterine
    fibroid leads to undergo hysterectomy surgery.
  • If she suffers a uterine prolapsed in which the
    uterus shifts or slides into the vaginal canal
    from its normal position, then also a woman is
    recommended to undergo this surgery.

  • Pain due to endometriosis is another major reason
    for around 20 of women to take hysterectomy.
  • Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding (DUB) is another
    cause for a woman to be advised for hysterectomy
    as this disorder usually leads to an abnormal
    bleeding in the vagina or a chronic pelvic pain.
  • The gynaecologist may recommend hysterectomy only
    if the woman has a cancer of the uterus and in
    other cases only if other treatment approaches
    have been unsuccessful.

  • Types of Hysterectomy There are mainly three
    types of hysterectomy and either of them is
    recommended depending on the reason for this
    surgery.
  • Radical hysterectomy This surgery is often
    recommended in cases of cancer where the surgeon
    removes the entire uterus with the cervix along
    with the upper part of the vagina, and supporting
    tissues.

  • Complete or total hysterectomy In this surgery,
    both the uterus and cervix are removed.
  • Partial or subtotal hysterectomy Also called
    supracervical hysterectomy, in this type of
    surgery the upper two-thirds of the uterus are
    removed, leaving the lower part (cervix) intact.
