Vaginal hysterectomy experiences and potential complications please
I finally had my post op appointment following hysteroscopy with biopsy and unable to perform ablation. Uterus was too patchy (thin and then thicker) in different areas for ablation and my cervix over dilated. We discussed trying again to do an ablation, trying new medication or going straight to hysterectomy. I've been on BCP and IUDs since I was a teen and none of them have helped with the constant irregular bleeding and horrible cramping with or without bleeding. I didn't want to try again and potentially not being able to do the ablation again so I opted for hysterectomy. I've already had my tubes removed with my last c section child. She said it would be vaginal hysterectomy. I couldn't think of anything to ask at the time but now I'm worried about adhesions to other organs and how that works with a vaginal hysterectomy. I haven't been diagnosed with adhesions but I've read a lot of people only finding out during surgery but always abdominal or laproscopic. I can't find any stories on vaginal hysterectomy with adhesions. My surgery isn't for months and I'm going to drive myself crazy with worry and questions. They said they'd answer questions and go over more at my pre op appointment but that's only 2 weeks before my surgery so months away. Anyone else have vaginal hysterectomy experience and were there complications? Can they safely separate the organs if they're adhered when it's just in the vagina or will they need to change to open? Is changing to open even on option mid surgery? Any experiences and advice would be greatly appreciated.
