Is Laproscopy Hysterectomy Advisable For Uterine Prolapse?
I have a complete uterine prolapse and have been advised to have a laparoscopy hysterectomy. Also the ovaries will go due to strong cancer family history. I am so afraid that our sex life will be gone and that it will mess up my bladder. I am a fit, active 64 y/o. Is this a successful procedure?

Hi,
In your case laparoscopy hysterectomy is the best as in this operation vaginal canal and urinary bladder will be well intact as they are not going to touch these structures.
Through vaginal hysterectomy lower parts and bladder might have some impact.
Your sex life is not going to affect by this procedure.
Ok and take care.
