What you need to know about Hysterectomy in Johannesburg

The surgical procedure to remove the uterus, which may also include the removal of the cervix, ovaries, and/or the Fallopian tubes. Performed by a gynecologist, it is by far the most common gynecological surgical procedure. After the operation, a patient will no longer be able to have children. If you have not yet gone through the menopause, you will no longer have periods.

A hysterectomy is used to treat conditions that affect the female reproductive system, such as heavy periods (menorrhagia), chronic (long-term) pelvic pain, non-cancerous tumors (fibroids) and cancer of the ovaries, womb, cervix or fallopian tubes.

It is a major operation with a long recovery time. It is usually only considered after alternative, less invasive treatments have been tried. There are several circumstances when you may be recommended to have a hysterectomy. The most common reasons include heavy periods, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), endometriosis, prolapse of the uterus, cancer.

What's the Recovery Time for Hysterectomy Procedures in Johannesburg?

Moving forward from a Hysterectomy in Johannesburg can be different for everyone. However, there are some general timelines that people tend to stick to. On average, full recovery might take anywhere from 2 weeks to 2 months. But remember, this time frame can be extended if the procedure was complicated, or if there were any complications during surgery.

While on the mend, it's crucial to listen to your body. If you feel pain, discomfort, or tiredness, it's a sign that you should rest. Pushing yourself too hard, too soon, can prolong recovery. Regular check-ups are crucial, and your medical professional will give guidance when it’s safe to return to regular activities. Each patient is unique, and so is each recovery journey from a Hysterectomy procedure in Johannesburg.

What's the Success Rate of Hysterectomy Procedures in Johannesburg?

Hysterectomy has a success rate of 80% and can cure several medical conditions as mentioned above. As for some women, it is the answer to several years of suffering from uterine problems. For others, it is the last resort to treat a life-threatening condition such as cancer.

Since this is major surgery, possible risks, and side effects could include chronic pain, vaginal prolapse, vaginal fistula, urinary incontinence, wound infections, blood clots, or a hemorrhage. There are also long term risks associated with having a hysterectomy which should also be considered, such as an increase in the risk of heart attack and stroke, urinary problems, sexual function problems, depression, hormone deficiency, or a decrease in blood supply to the ovaries.
