Skip to content At the Womens Health Group Chicago, our team is committed to providing you with comprehensive care through every step of your health journey. This begins with essential pre-surgical counseling and evaluation, carried out for those considering a hysterectomy in South Chicago. Our experienced professionals take time to discuss your medical history, current conditions, risk factors and alternative treatment options; enabling you to make informed decisions about your healthcare.
In order to reduce recovery times and the discomfort associated with traditional surgery methods Women’s Health Group offers a minimally invasive solution: laparoscopic hysterectomy. This procedure involves making tiny incisions into which specialized instruments are inserted to perform the removal process. The key benefits include reduced blood loss, less scarring, quicker healing period compared against more conventional operations.
At Womens Health Group in South Chicago we ensure that all sorts of treatments are available based on the varying needs of individual patients. In certain cases, an Abdominal Hysterectomy might be necessary where the uterus is removed through an incision made in the lower abdomen. Though it includes a longer hospital stay and recovery period than other types of hysterectomies, there may be reasons why this technique is most suitable for specific scenarios like larger uterine fibroids or cancer.
For some women based in South Chicago area seeking relief from health issues related to their reproductive system a Vaginal Hysterectomy could provide such relief while minimizing invasion techniques. This surgical procedure removes the uterus via vagina without need for abdominal cutting thereby offering lesser post-operative pain along with shorter recuperation periods when compared against its counterparts (abdominal/laparoscopic).
Optimal recovery following a hysterectomy happens as result of extensive post-operative care – something which we accord immense importance for Women’s Health Group Chicago. Our dedicated team provides personalized assistance and advice from managing temp discomfort to resuming daily activities. We aim at minimizing complications while ensuring your well-being after the procedure.
Hysterectomy can cause an early onset of menopause due to changes in hormone production, hence we also provide Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). HRT is designed to alleviate symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness and sometimes HDR may even reduce the risk of osteoporosis. At Womens Health Group Chicago, your safety and comfort are our priority aiming towards ensuring you live a healthy life with minimized disruptions because you deserve nothing less.

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.
