What is a "hysterectomy"?
A hysterectomy is a surgical procedure where the womb, known as the uterus, is removed from a woman's body. This surgery may involve removing the entire uterus or just a part of it, depending on the medical condition being treated. Hysterectomies are performed for various reasons, such as treating uterine fibroids, endometriosis, pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, or certain types of cancer. After a hysterectomy, a woman no longer has menstrual periods and cannot become pregnant. It is a major surgery that requires careful consideration and discussion with healthcare providers to evaluate the benefits and potential risks for each individual case.
