Hysterectomy is usually indicated for the following reasons:

  • Heavy vaginal bleeding and painful menses
  • Leiomyomas or uterine fibroids(non-cancerous tumours)
  • Adenomyosis or thickening of uterine walls
  • Chronic pelvic pain
  • Endometriosis
  • Uterine prolapse- a condition in which the uterus slips from its position towards the vaginal canal
  • Cancer in the uterus, cervix, or ovaries.
