Effect of hysterectomy
1, ovarian function is affected.
Excision of the uterus will also have a great impact on the function of the whole ovary, because if the ovary wants to be healthy, it must maintain the balance of the whole endocrine, and without the uterus, this balance will tilt, so for women, after hysterectomy, the ovary will age early. Moreover, premature ovarian failure, the whole woman will look older than the actual age, and menopause will be advanced.
This is actually very easy to understand. For women, no uterus is like no menstruation, and menstruation is one of the characteristics of women's health. Without this sign, their physical condition will be greatly affected.
2, affect the secretion of estrogen
After hysterectomy, it will not only affect the secretion of female estrogen, but also affect the elastic tissue around the entire urethra, making these elastic tissues thinner, and may even lead to the aggravation of the symptoms of the entire urinary system.
A few women will have urinary incontinence after hysterectomy. Studies have shown that the incidence of urinary system diseases in women with hysterectomy is about 40% higher than that in healthy women.
The influence of uterus on women
2. 1, fertility function
Reproductive function is an important function to complete human reproduction and continuation, and it is a sign of a woman's maturity.
2.2, menstrual function
Menstruation once a month is a sign of women's health and an important part of women's metabolism, which can promote the renewal of women's hematopoietic system and eliminate toxins in the body.
2.3, anti-aging function
Compared with normal women of the same age, patients with severe menopausal symptoms will increase by 34% and enter the old age ahead of time. In other words, hysterectomy will advance into old age, and senile diseases will appear earlier and more serious.

Harm of hysterectomy
1, symptoms of mental depression
Endocrine regulation of uterus and ovary and central nervous system form a feedback system. After hysterectomy, this feedback link is destroyed, especially when the estrogen level drops, which will interfere with the normal secretion and metabolism of central neurotransmitters, and can cause anxiety and depressive symptoms of different degrees, such as depression, anxiety, loss of interest, insomnia and dreaminess, and memory loss, thus reducing women's quality of life.
2. Symptoms of urinary system
Female urinary system and reproductive system have homology, and they are both estrogen-dependent organs. After hysterectomy, the decrease of estrogen level can make the elastic tissue around the urethra thinner, leading to urinary incontinence, atrophy of urethral mucosa, decreased resistance, easy to induce urinary tract infection, and a series of urinary tract symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency and pain.
3. Sexual dysfunction
Estrogen is the most important regulating hormone of female sexual function, and ovary is the main secretory organ. After hysterectomy, the blood supply and function of ovaries are affected. Most women will experience different degrees of sexual function changes, such as * * * decline or lack, decreased frequency of sexual activity, decreased sexual response ability, difficulty in sexual intercourse, and hypoesthesia of reproductive organs.
Nursing care after hysterectomy
Pay attention to psychological adjustment and keep a happy, cheerful and optimistic mood. After total hysterectomy, some women will worry about whether they will get old after hysterectomy. In fact, the characteristics of women are maintained by the secretion of estrogen by the ovaries. The uterus is only one of the important organs for the birth of the fetus. When patients have no fertility requirements, they can still maintain the normal physiological function of women and will not accelerate aging.
