Return To Menopause FAQ Archive   Why do women sometimes get hysterectomies during menopause? Answered By Macy Waltersson and Brian Laing, Editors Women get hysterectomies because they don't want to experience surgical or induced menopause that results from the removal of the ovaries. They are not able to experience induced/surgical menopause because the ovaries still produces hormones. Hysterectomy can be partial or total. Total hysterectomy involves the removal of the uterus and the cervix, while in partial hysterectomy only the uterus is removed. keywords: Menopause | Menopausal | Perimenopause | Hysterectomy | Ovaries Causes Of Hot Flashes
