Skip to content The Womens Health Group in Chicago demonstrates a deep commitment to women’s health by addressing patient distress right from the initial phases. Offering comprehensive pre-surgical counseling, our team tends to all your concerns related to hysterectomy procedures. To effectively guide you through your treatment journey, we initiate each process with an evaluation. This thorough examination aids us in understanding your unique health profile better and helps devise the best surgical approach that aligns with your condition.
We pledge to prioritize our patients’ comfort at all times, which led us to embrace minimally invasive surgery techniques like laparoscopic hysterectomy. With smaller incisions leading to quicker recovery time alongside reduced post-operative pain, this technique enhances overall patient experience significantly. The skilled practitioners at Womens Health Group navigate intricate surgeries such as these seamlessly due to their vast surgical exposure garnered over years of delivering targeted healthcare solutions.
When needed for specific medical reasons or after considering the patient’s preference, our highly trained surgeons are proficient in performing abdominal hysterectomies too. We ensure precision while retaining the direct vision advantage this traditional procedure provides. Our proficiency empowers us to carry out every step diligently so that patients can rest easy knowing they are under excellent care.
As a practice centered on prioritizing women’s wellness first- vaginal hysterectomy is another method on our roster performed by accomplished professionals within our facility – a less intrusive option compared to abdominal hysterectomies – leaving no exterior scars and promoting faster healing times for most cases. Suitable for various conditions, we advise it after meticulous consultation ensuring complete harmony between treatment received and desired outcomes.
While focusing on delivering victorious results during treatments comes naturally owing to our dedication, we broadened our care scope to include comprehensive post-operative recovery too. Womens Health Group appreciates the importance of holistic healing and provides excellent support throughout each patient’s journey. Our team of dedicated caregivers work round-the-clock ensuring your smooth transition back into daily life.
Often times after certain hysterectomy procedures, patients might encounter hormonal imbalances which require addressing promptly. At Womens Health Group Chicago, we provide expert hormone replacement therapy aimed at restoring harmony in bodily functions affected by these changes – always aligned with personal health history and current needs for optimum results. With us, expect total guidance understanding benefits versus potential risks linked to every prospect before settling on any course.

A hysterectomy is a surgery to remove the uterus. It is one of the most common surgeries performed on women in the United States.
A hysterectomy may be necessary to treat a variety of conditions, including:
There are three main types of hysterectomy:
A hysterectomy can be performed through the abdomen (open hysterectomy) or through the vagina (vaginal hysterectomy). Laparoscopic hysterectomy is a type of minimally invasive surgery that is also performed.
Like any surgery, hysterectomy has some risks, including:
After a hysterectomy, you will need to stay in the hospital for a few days. Most women make a full recovery within a few weeks. However, it is important to follow your doctor’s instructions carefully and to rest as much as possible.
Yes, you will still be able to have sex after a hysterectomy. However, it is important to wait until you are fully recovered from surgery before resuming sexual activity.
No, you will not be able to get pregnant after a hysterectomy. Hysterectomy is a permanent form of birth control.
If you are considering a hysterectomy, be sure to talk to your doctor about the risks and benefits of the surgery. Hysterectomy is a major surgery, but it can be a life-changing procedure for women with certain medical conditions.
