Common Questions and Answers about Hysterectomy procedure length
hysterectomy
As for complications, it can range from a little extra bleeding to finding cancer and having to do an open incision for a full hysterectomy and other stuff. In that case a person could be in the hospital for a few days. That's not likely since at least 95% of ovarian cysts are benign.
I have some heart problems too but I came through the surgery without a single problem. And laparoscopy means easy recovery. I was back to normal within the week.
How long or deep is the cervix and does HPV go all the way into the uterus or does it stay in the vagina? I am wondering just how painful that procedure really has to be, how much does he have to dig around to get the sample he needs?
I had a salpingo oopherectomy on both sides, a hysterectomy as well as a appendectomy on February 5th 2013. I am 27 years old. Since the procedure was done I have had severe lower abdominal pain while urinating. I have been very sick. Does anyone have an idea of what this pain is from?

The 2nd is to perform a hysterectomy via an incision to my bikini line and leave my right ovary intact. The recovery time is exactly the same which made me feel a hysterectomy is my best option but now I'm having second thoughts. Can someone advise me?
I have a fibroid about the size of a grapefruit on my uterus and at least 2 smaller ones. My doctor was going to try the procedure wherein they go in and cut off the blood supply to the fibroid when she thought it was just one. Now that she has learned through an ultrasound that there are multiple fibroids, she said that procedure is not an option as it would basically cut off the blood supply to the uterus if they did that for each fibroid.

t want to go through a surgical procedure and then end up having to have a hysterectomy in the long run. Naturally, I also don't want to have a hysterectomy and end up with complications and am really afraid of menopause. Any advise you might have would be greatly appreciated.
I understand that you want the hysterectomy due to BRCA issues. But it's still an elective procedure. Perhaps you could postpone the surgery for a year or two, until the baby is less likely to have to be picked up constantly. With regular monitoring, you should be okay. Caught early, ovca is curable. Just a thought.
The cervix is usually removed as well, and that entire procedure is called a total hysterectomy. There are two ways to do the surgery. The old-fashioned method is called a Total Abdominal Hysterectomy, or TAH, meaning the work is done through an abdominal incision. Recovery time is easily 6 to 8 weeks. A Total Vaginal Hysterectomy (TVH) means the uterus and cervix are removed through the vagina.
It works 70% of the time and peripausal women find a reduction in the length and amount of their bleeding. The other 30% find no relief and sometimes end up with a hysterectomy.
As I am on the doorstep of menopause and have this procedure done, my doctor will use blood work to find out when I'm truly in menopause.
I still think I will talk again with my GYN about this part. I want the cyst removed and the D&C, and am still having second thoughts about the EA.
For one thing, if you are going to lose your ovaries during this hysterectomy (called a complete or Radical hysterectomy) then you are losing a source of estrogen and testosterone. Your ovaries will continue to 'drip' some estrogen.. estradiol... until you are about 75 or 80. Your ovaries will also continue to drip some testosterone until you are about age 75. Of course, you won't get much in the way of these hormones but you get some.
I called a gastro doc and he set up a colonoscopy. I had to prep 2 days before the procedure. The morning of the procedure I still was NOT cleaned out!!!! YUCK.......still had to have the test. Now come to find out i have COLONIC INTERIA, but NEVER had problems before the hysterectomy. Is it possible that my gyne screwed something up?? I have also been having problems with my left leg (nerve) and 2 small toes going a little numb on me................
When procedures are done properly there is no problem with having a hysterectomy, the complications occur when a woman has a hysterectomy and organs/tissues are not properly anchored and women end up with vaginal vault prolapse. I encourage you to discuss the pros/cons of hysterectomy with your physician as well as ask the exact reason why he/she wants to include this as part of your surgery.
However, UFE is done by radiologists not gynecologists. So bottom line, that would be lost business for your gyn. Hysterectomy is very profitable and grossly overused so chances are many gyns will tell you to have a hysterectomy.
I had one 10 years ago at age 49 and regret it every day. It is the surgery that keeps on giving "problem after problem."
Best of luck in getting information and treatment that restores your health versus causing a whole new set of problems.
Insurance companies now require this procedure before a hysterectomy because it is less money. Most women will end up with a hysterectomy. There are contraindications why you should not have NovaSure done but gynecologist perform the procedure even though the woman is not a candidate. Doctors are not necessarily well informed and many women suffer. I had the procedure in 2005 and I would never recommend this procedure to any one I cared about. NovaSure is basically a form of torture for women.
I recently had a LEEP procedure done at the end of Feb. The next month when I did not have my regular period I went to my OB to find my cervix had scarred shut. He did a cervical dilation to allow me to drain and told me that if this did not work that I would need a D&C. I have read where this does not always work and a hysterectomy may have to be done. Does anyone know what percent of women with this condition end up having to have a hysterectomy?
ve gotten some REALLY good advice regarding the hysterectomy. To undergo a completely unnecessary surgical procedure simply for birth control is far too radical.
Since you are in very good health, have had NO problems with the Mirena and it's obviously working, why fix what isn't broken? Why take ANY unnecessary risks with a surgical procedure?
My advice is have a new device fitted and let nature takes it's course!
The procedure may be done using a local or spinal anesthesia, sometimes they put you into a twlight sleep,,drs usually use heat or freezing chemicals to take off edometrial layer,,,seems to be more common now than the D&C method,,,,in theory it should work...
They also did the bladder sling procedure because of a prolapse. She developed a serious infection around the sling procedure and was treated with antibiotics. She also developed an over active bladder. The urogynecologist said there is no fistula, but rather her bladder has become over active because of the hysterectomy and the sling procedure. She also said that it is a temporary condition, but put her on Detrol. Her condition had not improved. In fact, it seems to be worse.
