Effects of removing the uterus on the body

The uterus is a very important reproductive organ for women. It is an important place for women to menstruate and conceive a fetus. In some special cases, the uterus needs to be removed, such as heavy bleeding after pregnancy, severe infection, complications after surgery, etc. Given the importance of the uterus, when it is necessary to remove the uterus, the first thing patients consider is the impact of removing the uterus on the body. Let’s take a closer look below.

After a woman loses her uterus, her sexual function will degenerate to varying degrees, her sexual desire will decrease, and her sexual sensitivity will also be affected. This is because after a woman loses her uterus, estrogen cannot be secreted normally, and the blood supply and function of the ovaries will be greatly affected. The inability of the ovaries to secrete estrogen normally will naturally directly affect the quality of a woman's sex life.

Removing the uterus will also have a great impact on the entire ovarian function, because for the ovaries to be healthy, the entire endocrine balance must be maintained, and without the uterus, this balance will be disrupted. Therefore, for women, after the uterus is removed, the ovaries will age prematurely, and premature ovarian failure will make the whole woman look older than her actual age, and menopause will also come earlier. This is actually very easy to understand. For women, losing a uterus is like losing menstruation. Menstruation is a barometer of women's health. Without this health indicator, the physical condition will be greatly affected.

After the hysterectomy, it is not only the secretion of female hormones that is affected, but also the elastic tissue around the entire urethra, which will make these elastic tissues thinner and may even cause the symptoms of the entire urinary system to worsen. A small number of women will also have urinary incontinence after the hysterectomy. Studies have shown that the incidence of urinary system diseases in women who have had a hysterectomy is about 40% higher than that in healthy women.

Hysterectomy will also affect a woman's entire central nervous system, because under normal circumstances the endocrine system of the human uterus is closely related to the entire central nervous system of the human body. After the uterus is removed, this relationship will be destroyed, which will affect the normal secretion and metabolic functions of the entire central nervous system. Therefore, many women will experience varying degrees of memory loss, insomnia, and loss of confidence in everything after having their hysterectomy. Besides, everyone knows that the uterus has a special meaning for women, especially for those women of childbearing age, why would they feel inferior because of this?

Therefore, hysterectomy will also have a great impact on women's physical health, so if there is no need to remove the hysterectomy, it should not be done. However, if certain diseases are not removed, even life will be threatened. Therefore, when necessary, women still have to choose to bow their heads in the face of certain diseases.

Even so, women may adjust their mindset from a different perspective. For example, if they lose their fertility, as long as the relationship between the couple is still good, or they adopt a child, it is not a big deal. Without the ability to conceive a new life, there is no trouble with contraception, and there is no need to worry about what to do after an unexpected pregnancy. As for the impact on the ovaries and nervous system, in fact, as long as you know how to regulate and pay more attention to maintenance in this area in the future, you can completely minimize the damage. After all, as long as you are healthy and life continues, everything will be fine.

These are the possible harms of uterine removal. Yes, the uterus is very important to women. Therefore, everyone must pay attention to daily uterine health care and never ignore it. As a woman, although sometimes the uterus needs to be removed due to illness or the need to treat some diseases, it is also important for women to prevent it in daily life!
