Laparoscopic Hysterectomy Surgery

-



A hysterectomy is a surgical procedure that removes your uterus. After surgery, you can’t become pregnant and no longer menstruate. Reasons for this surgery include abnormal bleeding, uterine prolapse, fibroids and cancer. Recovery usually takes four to six weeks, depending on the type of surgery you have.

What are the different kinds of hysterectomy?

Your healthcare provider will discuss which type of hysterectomy is needed depending on your condition. This will determine if your fallopian tubes and/or ovaries need to be removed.

- Total hysterectomy: Removing your uterus and cervix, but leaving your ovaries.

- Supracervical hysterectomy: Removing just the upper part of your uterus while leaving your cervix.

- Total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy: Removing your uterus, cervix, fallopian tubes (salpingectomy) and ovaries (oophorectomy). If you haven't experienced menopause, removing your ovaries will start menopausal symptoms.

- Radical hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy: The removal of your uterus, cervix, fallopian tubes, ovaries, the upper portion of your vagina and some surrounding tissue and lymph nodes. This type of hysterectomy is performed when cancer is involved.

Male Fertility And Anabolic Steroids

Male infertility can be a very sensitive and difficult issue for many men to accept. It can come as a big surprise that they may be creating the problem by taking certain supplements – especially (anabolic) steroids. Steroids that are used to enhance strength and fitness can actually drastically lower a sperm count (to zero in many cases). These types of steroids can do damage to male fertility. The drugs interfere with the hormone signals required to produce sperm. The amount of damage depends on which drugs are being used, the dosage and how often they are taken. Anabolic steroids can be found in some fitness and muscle-building dietary supplements from unreputable companies. Excessive amounts of anabolic steroids may help you achieve a more muscle-bound physique; however, at the same time, it can also lower your sperm count considerably.

Your scrotum is the tissue that covers your testicles, but there’s no other protection from muscles or bones. Much of the time, testicles can absorb the shock that comes from an injury without serious damage. At other times, you may need to seek medical attention for treatment. Trauma can hurt your scrotum and your testicles, even tearing the protective tissue or causing the testicles to split open. Your testicles make sperm and hormones. Testicular trauma can harm those functions and interfere with blood flow. Who Is Affected By Testicular Trauma? Testicular trauma can affect anyone with one or two testicles.
