With personalised care at every stage – from pre-surgery counselling to post-operative support – we aim to ensure the best possible outcome, restore comfort, and improve long-term quality of life for every patient.
When to Seek Hysterectomy Screening and Consultation?
Hysterectomy is usually considered when other treatments have failed or are not suitable. Women experiencing ongoing gynaecological symptoms that affect daily life should consult a specialist to explore surgical options. Some of the signs and conditions that may indicate the need for a hysterectomy include:
- Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding unresponsive to medication
- Chronic pelvic pain or pressure
- Uterine fibroids causing pain or bleeding
- Endometriosis that does not improve with other treatments
- Uterine prolapse (slipping of the uterus into the vaginal canal)
- Abnormal or postmenopausal uterine bleeding
- Adenomyosis (thickening of the uterine wall)
- Recurrent infections or inflammation of the uterus
- Cancer or precancerous changes of the uterus, cervix, or ovaries
- Anaemia caused by excessive menstrual bleeding

Hysterectomy Procedures Available at Graphic Era Hospital
We provide a range of surgical options for hysterectomy, tailored to the patient’s condition, age, and overall health. Our approach focuses on safety, minimal discomfort, and faster recovery. Treatments offered at Graphic Era Hospital include:
- Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (TLH): A minimally invasive surgery where the uterus is removed through small abdominal incisions using a laparoscope, leading to quicker recovery and less pain.
- Abdominal Hysterectomy: Involves a larger incision in the abdomen and is generally used when the uterus is enlarged or when other pelvic organs need to be examined.
- Vaginal Hysterectomy: The uterus is removed through the vaginal canal, avoiding any external incisions and usually resulting in a shorter hospital stay.
- Subtotal (Partial) Hysterectomy: Only the uterus is removed, leaving the cervix in place, often considered when there is no disease involving the cervix.
- Radical Hysterectomy: Used in cancer cases, this surgery removes the uterus along with surrounding tissues, the upper part of the vagina, and sometimes lymph nodes.
- Pre- and Post-Operative Counselling: Comprehensive support to help patients understand the procedure, recovery expectations, and hormonal or emotional changes.
- Advanced Imaging and Diagnostic Support: Use of ultrasound, MRI, and other tools for precise diagnosis and surgical planning.
- Multidisciplinary Care for Complex Cases: Collaboration with oncology, endocrinology, and internal medicine teams when needed for holistic management..

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How do I know if I really need a hysterectomy?
A hysterectomy is usually recommended when other treatments have not worked or are not suitable. A gynaecologist will assess the condition and suggest surgery only if it is medically necessary.
Will a hysterectomy cause menopause?
Menopause only occurs if the ovaries are removed during surgery. If the ovaries are left intact, hormonal function usually continues, although some women may experience early menopause symptoms.
How long does it take to recover from a hysterectomy?
Recovery depends on the type of surgery. Most women resume normal activities within 4 to 6 weeks, and sooner with laparoscopic procedures.
Are there long-term side effects after uterus removal?
Some women may experience hormonal changes, emotional shifts, or changes in sexual function. Regular follow-up care and support can help manage these effects.
Can I lead a normal life after a hysterectomy?
Yes. Most women experience relief from symptoms and return to a normal, active lifestyle after recovery. It does not affect daily functioning or life expectancy.
