Is uterine suspension or hysterectomy better?

For female patients with uterine prolapse, there are generally two methods to treat this disease. The first is uterine suspension training, and the second is total hysterectomy. Recently, it has been found that many female patients with uterine prolapse are inclined to treat it with hysterectomy. Is total hysterectomy suitable for all female patients?

In fact, total hysterectomy also has certain advantages and disadvantages. Let’s first talk about the advantages of total hysterectomy. Because total hysterectomy is to treat uterine prolapse symptoms by completely removing the female patient’s uterus, the patient is less likely to experience symptom recurrence after the operation. So what are the disadvantages of total hysterectomy? Because this type of surgical treatment requires the complete removal of the female patient's uterus, it is difficult for the patient to become pregnant again after the operation. Therefore, for female patients who are still in the growth stage, this type of surgical treatment is not suitable.

Another way to treat uterine prolapse is uterine suspension training. This type of surgical treatment relies on some special suspension to pull the patient's uterus back to its original position. Therefore, the patient's uterine function is basically not affected during the operation. Therefore, if the female patient can take good care of herself after the operation and her body recovers completely, she can implement the pregnancy plan.

For female patients with uterine prolapse, if they choose surgical treatment, they must pay attention to postoperative medical care. The most important thing in postoperative medical care is hygiene care, because once the female patient has poor hygiene, she may be infected by some external substances, which will slow down the patient's recovery rate after surgery.

In general, for female patients with uterine prolapse, whether it is a good idea to choose hysterectomy for treatment needs to be judged based on the patient's specific situation. Generally speaking, for female patients who are planning to have children, it is best not to choose this method for treatment, because once they choose this method for treatment, it means that they have given up their plan to get pregnant.
