Care Type

Inpatient

Hysterectomy is recommended for conditions such as large or symptomatic uterine fibroids, severe endometriosis, uterine prolapse, chronic pelvic pain unresponsive to other treatments, or a diagnosis of cancer of the uterus, cervix, or ovaries. It may also be advised for persistent, severe abnormal uterine bleeding that has not improved with medication or less invasive procedures.

Signs You May Need Hysterectomy

Common symptoms leading to this surgery include heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding causing anaemia, chronic pelvic pain or pressure, a noticeable bulge or heaviness from uterine prolapse, and pain during intercourse related to fibroids or endometriosis. Abnormal bleeding after menopause, which can signal cancer, is an urgent indication requiring prompt evaluation.

Types of Hysterectomy

Hysterectomy can be performed abdominally through an open incision for larger uteri or complex cases, vaginally without any external incision for prolapse or smaller uteri, or laparoscopically using small keyhole incisions for a quicker recovery. The surgery may also be total, removing the uterus and cervix, or subtotal, leaving the cervix in place, and may or may not include removal of the ovaries and fallopian tubes depending on the underlying condition and patient's age.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I go into menopause immediately after a hysterectomy?

If your ovaries are preserved, you will not experience surgical menopause and will continue to produce hormones naturally until your natural menopause age; menopause only occurs immediately if both ovaries are also removed.

How much does a hysterectomy cost in India?

Costs vary by approach and hospital, generally ranging from around Rs 80,000 for laparoscopic surgery to Rs 1,50,000 or more depending on complexity and facility.

How long is the recovery period?

Recovery time depends on the surgical approach, with laparoscopic and vaginal hysterectomy generally allowing quicker recovery of 2 to 4 weeks, while open abdominal surgery may take 6 to 8 weeks for full recovery.

Will my sex life be affected after hysterectomy?

Most women resume normal sexual activity without issues once fully healed, typically after 6 to 8 weeks, though it's important to discuss any specific concerns with your gynaecologist beforehand.

Are there alternatives to hysterectomy?

Depending on the condition, alternatives like myomectomy, endometrial ablation, or hormonal treatment may be options, so it's worth discussing all possibilities with your gynaecologist before deciding on surgery.
