A hysterectomy only removes the uterus and cervix. The ovaries remain in place, still prone to cysts.*
* The only way to prevent this would be an oophorectomy (surgical removal of the ovaries). Unfortunately, this causes the immediate onset of menopause, and is the reason that it isn't done as a matter of course.
No, as an oophorectomy removes the ovary you cannot get an ovarian cyst. However, this is only the case if both ovaries are removed.
Yes, it is possible to have an ectopic pregnancy after a vaginal hysterectomy if one or both ovaries are still present.
No. hysterectomy only removes uterus. The ovaries produce the ova (eggs) so unless you have a bilateral (both) oopherectomy you will still ovulate.
Not unless you have both ovaries removed (oopherectomy)
no but sometimes i do
Hysterectomy is removal of uterus. Total hysterectomy is removal of uterus and cervix. If fallopian tubes and ovaries removed as well this is a salpingo oopherectomy (bilateral = both- unilateral one). So a total hysterectomy with salpingo oopherectomy is the uterus,cervix,fallopian tubes and ovaries
Not entirely unless you have your ovaries removed. Hysterectomy is only the removal of the uterus so the body will still produce ova which will be absorbed and there will be no menses after a hysterectomy.
There are several types of hysterectomy. Hysterectomy is removal of uterus. Total hysterectomy is uterus and cervix. Additionally the fallopian tubes (salpingo) and ovaries (oopherectomy) may be removed so, a total hysterectomy with unilateral(one) or bilateral (both) salpingo oopherectomy would be all the reproductive organs apart from the vagina. Radical hysterectomy also removes lymph nodes when cancer has spread beyond the fallopian tubes.
Tes. Menopause is caused by the faling of the ovaries as one ages. A hysterectomy is only removal of womb so unless you have had a bilateral oopherectomy (removal of both ovaries) you will go through the natural menopause.
Yes, the left ovary can still function after a hysterectomy, provided it was not removed during the procedure. A hysterectomy involves the removal of the uterus, but the ovaries may be left intact. If the ovaries are preserved, they continue to produce hormones and release eggs, maintaining their normal functions. However, if both ovaries are removed (oophorectomy), ovarian function ceases.

No. In a total hysterectomy both ovaries are removed meaning that the body will not be able to produce any level of estrogen or progesterone
