What happens if the uterus is removed?

The uterus is an important reproductive organ for women. If the uterus is removed, it will have a huge impact on women. If the uterus is removed, women will experience amenorrhea, infertility, memory loss, endocrine disorders, etc. These effects are relatively common.

1. Women will stop menstruating if they lose their uterus

This is because the occurrence of menstruation is the result of the cyclical thickening, spontaneous shedding, and spontaneous recovery of the endometrium. If the uterus is removed, there will be no menstruation. Does menopause mean that women are beginning to age? Not really, because the onset of menstruation is regulated by the brain and ovaries, and the uterus executes the corresponding commands.

Therefore, as long as there is menstruation before the operation and the ovaries are still retained, there is no aging.

2. Women’s ovarian function will be affected if they don’t have a uterus

Part of the blood supply to the ovaries comes from the uterus. After the uterus is removed, the health of the ovaries will be affected. Insufficient blood supply to the ovaries will lead to degeneration of ovarian function and a decrease in estrogen in the blood, so menopause will come a few years earlier.

3. Women cannot have children without a uterus

We know that the ovaries release eggs, the eggs and sperm combine to form a fertilized egg, and the fertilized embryo needs to grow and develop in the uterus. If a woman does not have a uterus, she will not be able to give birth herself.

4. Women without a uterus will experience varying degrees of memory loss

The endocrine system of the uterus also has a mutual influence on the human central nervous system. After losing the uterus, the central nervous system is affected, and some people will experience varying degrees of memory decline or even memory loss. Some people may also experience insomnia, nightmares or neurasthenia.

5. Women without a uterus may experience urinary incontinence

A small number of women will experience thinning of the urethral tissue elasticity due to hysterectomy. In severe cases, this can cause symptoms of the entire urinary system to worsen, and a few may even experience urinary incontinence.

6. Women without a uterus have a certain impact on their sex life

Most women who have had their hysterectomy can still have a normal sexual life, but some patients may have some problems with their sexual life due to scars, vaginal narrowing or psychological factors, but most of them are psychological problems.
