Robotic Hysterectomy
Gynecologist Oncologist Assoc. Prof. Dr. Sema Karakaş: You have probably heard of at least one woman you know who had her uterus removed. But why? The uterus can be removed in all cases of cancer, fibroids, abnormalities and bleeding. If your ovaries were spared during hysterectomy, you will not go through menopause and your sexual health will not be affected by hysterectomy. A nice study was done on patients who were admitted to the hospital with bleeding complaints: they were given medication, inserted a hormonal spiral or directly operated on. The patients were divided into three groups and a study was conducted, then patient satisfaction was evaluated. The most satisfied group was the group that had their uterus removed directly in surgery. So don't be afraid; neither your sexual health will deteriorate nor you will go into menopause because of hysterectomy.
