Skip to content At the Womens Health Group Chicago, our commitment extends beyond just clinical procedures. We understand the emotional toll a hysterectomy can bring to an individual; therefore, we offer pre-surgical counseling and evaluation as part of our comprehensive care plan. Our team of experienced medical professionals works closely with each woman to provide them all necessary information, address their concerns, assess their health condition, and ensure that they are ready both physically and emotionally for the procedure.
Emerging as one of the most preferred methods for hysterectomy, Laparoscopic Hysterectomy involves minimally invasive surgery through small incisions in your abdomen. The priority at Women’s Health Group Chicago is to ensure patient safety while minimizing recovery time with this advanced technique. With precise control over surgical processes and less post-procedure pain compared to traditional surgeries, patients enjoy shorter hospital stays and faster returns to their day-to-day life activities.
An Abdominal Hysterectomy could be recommended by our healthcare providers under certain circumstances tractable fibroids or when other types of hysterectomies aren’t possible or safe due to complications or underlying conditions. At Womens Health Group Chicago, our skilled team ensures personalized attention from initial consultation through surgery till complete post-operative rehabilitation towards full recovery.
Vaginal Hysterectomy is yet another option available at our clinic where there are no visible scars left behind after surgery since the uterus is removed via natural openings in your body. This approach has several advantages including reduced hospital stays along with minimized discomfort for our clients during convalescence stage thanks largely because it is not involving abdominal-incision thus leaving lesser impact on individuals overall routine lifestyle requirements.
Womens Health Group Chicago sincerely believes in comprehensive healthcare experience, which continues even after the surgery has been performed. Efficient post-operative care plays a vital role in recovery and rehabilitation. Our team not only ensures that pain management is effectively handled but also provides essential emotional support to instill confidence towards normalcy return.
Once you undergo a hysterectomy, it may alter your body’s hormonal balance leading to potential onset of menopausal symptoms ahead of its natural schedule in some women. To help manage these changes and transition smoothly with least discomfort, we offer Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). HRT can vastly improve the quality of life by countering symptoms such as hot flushes, mood swings and osteoporosis risks brought about due to sudden change in hormonal levels post-hysterectomy.

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.
