Vaginal Hysterectomy

A vaginal hysterectomy is a surgical procedure in which the uterus is removed through the vagina, without any external abdominal incision. It is considered a less invasive option compared to abdominal hysterectomy and often allows faster recovery, minimal scarring, and shorter hospital stays. Doctors may recommend vaginal hysterectomy for conditions such as uterine prolapse, fibroids, abnormal bleeding, chronic pelvic pain, or early-stage cancers (in selected cases).
India is a preferred destination for vaginal hysterectomies due to its skilled gynaecologists, advanced hospitals, affordable medical packages, and comprehensive medical tourism services offered by VivaVel Health.

Signs & Symptoms
