🚫 Hysterectomy Myths Busted! 🧠🧵
Let’s talk facts, not fear.
Too many women delay life-changing treatment because of outdated myths about hysterectomy. It’s time to separate fact from fiction and empower women with the truth. 💪👩⚕️
Here are 5 common myths — and the reality:
1️⃣ “It’s only for older women.”
👉 Hysterectomies are done for valid medical reasons — at ANY age — like fibroids, endometriosis, or adenomyosis.
2️⃣ “You’ll lose your femininity.”
👉 Removing the uterus does not change who you are. Your strength, identity, and femininity remain untouched. 🌺
3️⃣ “It always causes early menopause.”
👉 Only if the ovaries are removed. Uterus removal alone doesn’t trigger menopause.
4️⃣ “You’ll need months to recover.”
👉 With laparoscopic or robotic surgery, many women are back on their feet in days or weeks, not months. 🏃♀️
5️⃣ “It’s the end of intimacy.”
👉 Most women report the same or even better quality of life and intimacy post-surgery.
You deserve facts. You deserve options.
Speak to your gynaecologist — not Google. 💬✨
