Uterus Removal Cost in Kolkata

Hysterectomy is necessary if the female reproductive system gets adversely affected. Women may require hysterectomy surgery for following reasons:

• Long-term pelvic pain
• Ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, cervical cancer or cancer of the fallopian tubes
• Heavy periods
• Formation of non-cancerous tumors in the uterus
• Infected uterus lining
• Pelvic inflammatory disease or inflammation in the pelvis due to other reasons
• Uterine prolapse

Hysterectomy can be classified into two main sub-categories, namely:

• Abdominal Hysterectomy – Hysterectomy surgery performed through the abdominal region is termed as abdominal hysterectomy. During this surgical procedure, an incision is made in the lower abdomen.
• Vaginal Hysterectomy – Vaginal Hysterectomy is performed through the vaginal canal of a woman. It is found to be a better method than abdominal hysterectomy as it requires shorter healing time.

Based on your health issues, during hysterectomy, you may also have to decide whether or not to also have your cervix or ovaries removed along with your womb. This decision can be based on your personal feeling, medical history and doctor's recommendation.

Hysterectomy surgery is a major surgical process. You can be admitted in the hospital for around five days after the surgery. Depending on the type of hysterectomy, recovery time varies. In most cases, it requires six to eight weeks to recovery completely.

Your abdominal muscles and tissues take some time to heal. Women are asked to get complete rest during the recovery time. Do not lift heavy objects during this time.
