This is when Uterus and cervix is removed, leaving the ovaries in place. This may be due to abnormal mentrual cycle, endometriosis, abnormalites. Leaving the ovaries allows the patient to be free of hormone replacement.

Description of female sterilization?

The two main methods are 'cut and tie' or a 'hysterectomy'. In the 'cut & tie' method, a small incision is made over the area of each fallopian tube. The surgeon exposes and cuts each tube, tying each end so that they cannot reconnect. The 'hysterectomy' method involves the total removal of all pars of the female reproductive system - including womb, ovaries and fallopian tubes.

Has anyone had a hysterectomy years after getting a tubal ligation and does that create complications later on down the road with your periods?

Having a tubal ligation makes no difference to your periods. If you have a hysterectomy you will no longer have periods, well not the bleeding anyway. If you do not have your ovaries removed you will still have pre-menstrual symptoms (if you have them) but you will no longer have cramps or bleeding. If your ovaries are removed as well you will go into the menopause.

Can cysts be the reason for total abdominal hysterectomy?

Cysts are usually found on the ovaries whereas a total hysterectomy whether abdominal or laproscopic removes the uterus and cervix. If the cysts are cancerous then their removal would be one option either by an oopherectomy (removal of the ovary) or a cystectomy removal of the cysts. It would be unusual therefore to have a hysterectomy for ovarian cysts unless there are other conditions which may point to this such as fibroids etc,
