Hysterectomy
A vaginal hysterectomy (VH) is a procedure in which the uterus is surgically removed through the vagina. Occasionally one or both ovaries and fallopian tubes may be removed during the procedure as well. The cervix is also removed, as it represents the bottom part of the uterus. Vaginal hysterectomy has fewer complications and a faster recovery time than abdominal hysterectomy (AH).
