HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is understandable to be concerned about any surgical procedure but this surgery is widely done and not normally associated with complications.
Your surgeon can clarify if the procedure would involve removal of the cervix (total hysterectomy) or if the cervix will remain (subtotal hysterectomy).
In terms of intimacy, it should not be affected because ,as you mentioned, the vaginal area is not altered. In most cases , it is only the perception of change.
I hope this helps
