Frequently asked questions
Will removing the uterus cause menopause?
Only if the ovaries are also removed. The surgeon explains whether the ovaries will be kept.
Are there options other than hysterectomy for fibroids?
Yes — medicines, removal of fibroids alone, or uterine fibroid embolisation (UFE) through a pinhole.
