• Abnormal cell changes or cancers, which a doctor checks for
• Heavy periods that do not respond to other treatment

How a doctor assesses it

A doctor reviews your history, examines you and may advise an ultrasound, blood tests and sometimes a tissue sample from the womb lining. They explain what the tests show and whether alternatives could help.

Who may need it

Hysterectomy is considered when other treatments have not worked or are unsuitable, or when it is needed for medical reasons. It ends periods and the ability to become pregnant, so it is a decision to make carefully with your doctor.

Treatment options

What the procedure involves

The operation is done under anaesthesia chosen by the team. The surgeon removes the uterus by the chosen route and closes the wounds. You stay in hospital for a period decided by your surgeon.

Removal of the ovaries changes hormones, and the doctor will discuss this with you before surgery.

Recovery

• Pain and tiredness for a period, with medicines as advised
• Walking is encouraged early
• Avoid heavy lifting and strenuous activity for the period advised
• Rest and a gradual return to normal activity
• Follow-up visits check healing

Everyone heals differently. Follow your own surgeon's instructions.

Risks

• Bleeding
• Infection
• Injury to the bladder, bowel or ureters
• Blood clots
• Early menopause symptoms if the ovaries are removed
• Changes in bladder or bowel function
• Risks linked to anaesthesia

Your surgeon will explain which risks matter most for you. No result can be guaranteed.

Cost and payment

The cost of hysterectomy treatment depends on your case and cannot be fixed without a medical assessment. These are the main things that change it:

• The route of surgery (abdominal, vaginal or keyhole)
• Whether tubes or ovaries are removed
• Length of hospital stay
• Tests before surgery
• The hospital or day-care centre and the room type
• The surgeon's and anaesthetist's fees
• Tests and scans before surgery
• Medicines, dressings and follow-up visits
• Whether you pay in cash, use EMI or claim insurance

Our team explains your options for cash, EMI and insurance, helps you compare packages and handles insurance paperwork. Try the EMI calculator to plan your payments. Insurance cover depends on your policy and insurer, and approval cannot be promised.

Questions to ask your surgeon

• Are there alternatives that keep my uterus?
• Will my ovaries be removed, and what does that mean for me?
• Which route do you advise for me?
• What will recovery look like at home?
• Who will perform my procedure, and how often have they done it?
• What are the risks for me and how are complications handled?
• What is the full cost, in writing, and what does it include?

Check that any doctor is registered, for example on the National Medical Commission register or with the state medical council.
