Understanding the Hysterectomy Procedure
Hysterectomy can be performed using various methods, depending on the patient's specific condition and surgical goals. These methods include:
- Vaginal Hysterectomy: The uterus is removed through a small incision made in the vaginal canal, leaving no visible scars and often allowing for a faster recovery.
- Laparoscopic Hysterectomy: Using a small camera and specialized instruments, Dr. Beck can remove the uterus through small incisions in the abdomen, providing precise control and minimal scarring.
- Abdominal Hysterectomy: For cases where a larger view is required, such as extensive endometriosis or large fibroids, an abdominal hysterectomy may be the preferred approach.
During your consultation, these options will be discussed, ensuring you feel fully informed about what to expect before, during, and after the procedure.
