Minimally invasive, not open surgery
A laparoscopic hysterectomy removes the uterus through a few small incisions instead of a large abdominal cut. That usually means less pain, a shorter hospital stay and a quicker return to your life. If the ovaries are preserved, it does not bring on hormonal menopause.
Common reasons
It is considered for symptomatic fibroids, adenomyosis, severe abnormal bleeding, prolapse and some early-stage conditions. If you are weighing whether to keep the uterus, see myomectomy or hysterectomy?.
