Each week over 1,000 women have a hysterectomy -- an operation to remove the womb. This reassuring and practical book explains what a hysterectomy is, the hospital procedure, the different types of operation, and how to adjust afterwards. In particular the author discusses both the physical and emotional reactions, and also the attitude of partners. Helpful sections with exercises for post-operative care, useful addresses and further reading make this a reliable source of information on this common problem.
