Hysterectomy Surgery in Scottsdale

Have you crossed the threshold into the new territory of "middle-age" and have been putting off seeing a gynecologist to address recent health issues? Do you think it might be time for a hysterectomy but have hesitations about post-operative depression, loss of sex drive or other concerns?

Armity Simon can help with your questions and concerns regarding an upcoming hysterectomy surgery in Scottsdale. A hysterectomy surgery in Scottsdale is the surgical removal of the uterus (womb) and its cervix (neck) and is the most effective treatment for gynecological cancers and other gynecological maladies. There are three basic types of hysterectomy surgical procedures: vaginal hysterectomy, abdominal hysterectomy, and laparoscopic-assisted vaginal. The type of hysterectomy surgery in Scottsdale that is the best for your situation can be determined by Simon and your health situation.

To put your mind at ease, Simon can help you understand that there is no research to support the belief that a hysterectomy often causes depression. Other myths addressed are that most women report sexual drive and the ability to have an orgasm are unchanged after a hysterectomy.

Finally, a hysterectomy surgery in Scottsdale that removes the uterus and cervix, but not the ovaries, usually does not cause the onset of menopause.

Contact Armity Simon today and let us discuss your medical needs in detail. You'll be glad you took the time to obtain the facts and face your surgery with confidence.
