1. Infertility: The removal of the uterus means that women are unable to conceive and bear children, which is a significant blow to their reproductive capabilities.
2. Cessation of menstruation: Once the uterus is removed, there is no longer a menstrual cycle and the physiological period ceases to exist.
3. Increased risk of urinary problems: After a hysterectomy, the secretion of estrogen may be affected, which can lead to the shrinkage of the urethral tissue in women.
