  3. 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. http://www.texasobgyn.com

  4. 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. http://www.texasobgyn.com

  5. 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. http://www.texasobgyn.com

  6. 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. http://www.texasobgyn.com
