Life After Hysterectomy: Hormones, Menopause, Gut, Vaginal & Pelvic Health
For some women, a hysterectomy brings enormous relief after years of heavy bleeding, fibroids, adenomyosis or pelvic pain. For others, women's health concerns can continue or change over time.
Even without a uterus, hormones, menopause, gut health, the vaginal microbiome, pelvic floor, bladder health and nervous system can all remain important parts of the picture.
In this Health Topic, we explore what can happen after hysterectomy, how to recognise menopause when periods are no longer a guide, and how naturopathic care can support women's health and healthy ageing through the years that follow.
