What does it mean for a woman to have no uterus?

Any normal female friend is unwilling to have a hysterectomy, because the uterus is the foundation for a woman to become a real mother. Without the uterus, a woman's life will be incomplete. However, many women are forced to have their hysterectomy due to medical reasons. Therefore, many women ask what are the consequences of hysterectomy? What role does the uterus play in women?

What are the consequences of a hysterectomy?

Hysterectomy undoubtedly has a lot of negative impacts on the patient's physiology, psychology and life integration after the operation. This is because the uterus is an endocrine organ with complex functions. Many biologically active substances secreted by the uterus can participate in regulating local and systemic physiological and pathological processes.

Hysterectomy not only destroys the endocrine balance between the uterus and ovaries before menopause, but also can cause ovarian failure. More detailed impacts are as follows:

1. Ovarian involvement

Removal of the uterus also has a great impact on the entire ovary, because for the uterus and ovaries to be healthy, the overall endocrine balance must be maintained, and this balance will be disrupted after the uterus is removed. Therefore, for women, after the uterus is removed, the uterus and ovaries will decline prematurely. All women with premature ovarian failure will appear younger than their actual age, and menopause will also be advanced.

2. Affecting the metabolism of estrogen

After the hysterectomy, it will not only affect the female's estrogen secretion, but also affect the entire elastic tissue around the urethra, which will cause these elastic tissues to soften and may even cause the symptoms of the entire urogenital system to worsen.

A very small number of women will continue to have urinary incontinence after having a hysterectomy. Scientific research shows that the incidence of urogenital diseases in women who have had a hysterectomy is about 40% higher than that in healthy women.

Specific manifestations of hysterectomy syndrome

1. Constipation, urine retention, and urinary incontinence. This is a disease in which the uterus is missing in the pelvic area, and the duodenum, bladder, and urethra move toward the middle.

2. Being thin and weak, unable to carry heavy weights. It is caused by rupture of the pelvic ligaments and reduction of the pelvic force.

3. The couple’s life is not harmonious and there is no sexual pleasure. Because the clitoral nerve is connected to the uterus, the clitoris will no longer be stimulated if it is removed, and the loss of the cervix will make it even worse. The second is pain during sexual intercourse, which is caused by the shortening of the vagina.
