About the Procedure

What is Hysterectomy?

A hysterectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the uterus, performed to treat conditions such as uterine prolapse, abnormal uterine bleeding, fibroids, adenomyosis, or gynaecological cancers when conservative treatments have failed. Depending on the underlying condition and anatomy, the surgery can be performed laparoscopically, vaginally, or through an open abdominal incision. India offers advanced minimally invasive options performed by experienced gynaecological surgeons at a fraction of the cost of Western countries.

Who may be considered?

Hysterectomy may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.

How does it work?

The uterus is removed through small keyhole incisions using a camera and specialized instruments, allowing faster recovery and minimal scarring.

3 approaches available for this procedure:

Laparoscopic (Total/Sub-total) Hysterectomy

Minimally Invasive

The uterus is removed through small keyhole incisions using a camera and specialized instruments, allowing faster recovery and minimal scarring.

Comprehensive Investigations

Estimated cost: $200 - $500

CBC, blood grouping, coagulation profile, pelvic ultrasound, Pap smear, endometrial biopsy (if indicated), ECG, chest X-ray, renal and liver function tests

Treatment / Procedure Estimate

Estimated cost in India: $3,200 - $5,000

Stay in India

Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~1 day

Hospitalisation: ~2-3 days

Recovery period (outside hospital): ~2-3 weeks recommended

Total stay: approx 3-4 days

Usually Included in Hospital Package

Surgeon and anaesthesia fees
Operating room and disposables
Standard room stay
Routine post-op medication
One follow-up consultation

Usually Not Included

Pre-procedure investigations
Airfare and visa costs
Extended ICU stay if required
Companion accommodation
Histopathology if additional testing needed

Recovery and follow-up

Most patients resume light activities within 2-3 weeks after minimally invasive or vaginal hysterectomy, while abdominal hysterectomy may require 4-6 weeks; strenuous activity and heavy lifting should be avoided until cleared by the surgeon.

Risks

Potential risks include bleeding, infection, injury to nearby organs (bladder or bowel), anaesthesia-related complications, and early menopause symptoms if ovaries are also removed.

Alternatives

Depending on the underlying condition, alternatives may include hormonal therapy, uterine artery embolization, myomectomy, endometrial ablation, or pessary use for prolapse management.

Common questions

FAQs about Hysterectomy in Abu Dhabi, UAE

What is Uterine Prolapse?

Uterine prolapse is a condition in which the uterus slips downward from its normal position and protrudes into or outside the vaginal opening, due to weakening of the supportive structures of the pelvic floor. It exists on a spectrum of severity, from mild descent to complete prolapse outside the body.

What are the symptoms and health risks of Uterine Prolapse?

Common symptoms include a sensation of pressure, heaviness, or 'something falling out' in the pelvis, lower back discomfort, difficulty with urination or bowel movements, and, in more advanced cases, visible or palpable tissue at or outside the vaginal opening. Some women also report pain or discomfort during sexual intercourse, or notice that symptoms worsen with prolonged standing or physical activity and ease when lying down. It is important to note that the presence or severity of symptoms does not on its own establish a clinical diagnosis — a formal examination by a qualified clinician is required.

How is Uterine Prolapse diagnosed?

Diagnosis is typically made through a pelvic examination, during which the clinician assesses the degree of descent using a standardised grading system; the most widely used is the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q) system, which classifies prolapse from Stage I (mild descent, remaining above the vaginal opening) to Stage IV (complete prolapse outside the body). In addition to examining the uterus, the clinician will assess for concurrent prolapse of the bladder (cystocele) or rectum (rectocele), as these frequently co-occur. Further investigations — such as urodynamic studies to evaluate bladder function, pelvic floor ultrasound, or MRI — may be recommended depending on the clinical picture and planned treatment approach.

How is Uterine Prolapse treated?

The appropriate treatment for uterine prolapse depends on the stage of prolapse, the woman's symptoms, her overall health, reproductive wishes, and personal preferences — and should always be determined through individual assessment by a qualified specialist. Mild to moderate prolapse is frequently managed without surgery through pelvic floor rehabilitation, lifestyle modification, and the use of a vaginal pessary to provide mechanical support. When prolapse is more advanced, symptoms are significantly affecting quality of life, or conservative measures have not provided sufficient relief, surgical options — which may include uterine-preserving repair procedures or hysterectomy combined with pelvic floor reconstruction — may be considered.

Can Uterine Prolapse be treated without a procedure?

Non-surgical management is a well-established and effective pathway for many women, particularly those with Stage I–II prolapse or those who are not surgical candidates. Supervised pelvic floor muscle training (Kegel exercises), management of contributing factors such as chronic constipation or excess weight, and fitting of a vaginal pessary (a removable device that mechanically supports the uterus) are the principal non-surgical options. Topical oestrogen therapy may also be recommended for postmenopausal women to help maintain vaginal tissue health, though its use is guided by individual medical assessment.

When is Hysterectomy considered for Uterine Prolapse?

Hysterectomy may be considered only when it is appropriate for the confirmed diagnosis and the expected benefit outweighs the individual risks. The decision may depend on symptom severity, investigation results, previous treatment, overall health and the patient's goals. A specialist should discuss alternatives and recovery before any procedure is planned.

Which doctor treats Uterine Prolapse?

Uterine prolapse is evaluated and managed by a gynaecologist, and in many cases by a urogynaecologist or a gynaecologist with specialist training in pelvic floor disorders — particularly when urinary or bowel dysfunction is present alongside the prolapse. If surgery is planned, a gynaecological surgeon experienced in pelvic reconstructive procedures or, where hysterectomy is indicated, a gynaecologist with dedicated expertise in that procedure will typically lead care.

How do I choose a doctor for Uterine Prolapse?

When selecting a clinician, it is worth asking about their specific experience with pelvic floor assessment and reconstruction, the volume of cases they manage at the relevant stage of prolapse, and whether they work within a multidisciplinary team that includes physiotherapists specialising in pelvic floor rehabilitation — as access to conservative care alongside surgical expertise tends to support the best long-term outcomes. Confirming the availability of structured follow-up, particularly if a pessary is fitted or surgery is performed, is also an important practical consideration.

What documents do international patients need to share for a medical evaluation?

Share a concise medical summary, symptom timeline, previous diagnoses, investigation and imaging reports, procedure or biopsy reports where relevant, current medicines, allergies and related treatment records. Provide clear copies with translations when needed. The reviewing doctor may request additional information before giving an opinion.

How does GAF Healthcare help international patients plan treatment in India?

Our care coordination team can review the initial information, help identify suitable doctors and hospitals, request a medical opinion where available, explain next steps and indicative cost information, and support practical planning before travel. A remote opinion does not replace an in-person examination or emergency care.
