Skip to content The Womens Health Group Chicago ensures that every woman receives comprehensive care before she undergoes a hysterectomy. Our approach involves different stages of pre-surgical counseling and evaluation, where our expert team meets with each patient to understand her concerns, assess her health condition, discuss possible risks and prepare for the procedure physically and emotionally. We believe knowledge empowers patients to take an active role in decision-making process about their healthcare. So we provide all information necessary for women to make informed decisions about their treatment plan.
Womens Health Group Chicago offers advanced surgical procedures such as laparoscopic hysterectomy—minimal invasive surgery with faster recovery time compared with traditional surgeries. Our experienced surgeons guide you through the entire process ensuring you have a clear understanding of expectations post-surgery. The procedure is performed via small incisions around belly button aiming at minimal scar formation yet providing significant comfort during recovery period.
At Womens Health Group Chicago, we are dedicated towards offering individualized care using best practices combined with up-to-date medical recommendations and technology that suit your unique needs. In some cases that might point toward an abdominal hysterectomy; a full removal of uterus through abdomen area under general anesthesia. This practice generally suits those who have larger uteruses or when other procedures could be ineffective due to health complications.
We also specialize in vaginal hysterectomies–a minimally invasive operation done without any external cuts or wound closure stitches where uterus is removed entirely through vagina passage easing up intraoperative period alongside promoting quicker recuperation phase afterwards contributing significantly towards quality living in subsequent years post operation.
Your wellbeing doesn’t end at operative table within Womens Health Group Chicago. We prioritize post-operative care and aim for swift as well as smooth recovery of our patients. Comprehensive aftercare plans are meticulously formulated to suit individual needs reducing potential risks, abating discomforts & expediting healing timeline ensuring a much comfortable recuperation period.

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.
