Understanding Hysterectomy in Fort Lauderdale

If you are considering a hysterectomy in Fort Lauderdale, it helps to understand what the procedure involves. A hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus, a very common operation among women in the United States. According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), uterine fibroids, endometriosis, chronic pelvic pain, uterine prolapse, heavy bleeding, and certain cancers are among the most common reasons. A total hysterectomy removes the uterus and cervix, while a partial or supracervical procedure leaves the cervix intact. The procedure results in permanent infertility and may also include removal of ovaries and fallopian tubes in some cases.

Our practice specializes in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, offering robotic hysterectomy in Fort Lauderdale and laparoscopic hysterectomy in Fort Lauderdale approaches that can reduce recovery time and limit scarring.
