A hysterectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the uterus (which would include the cervix). Sometimes the Fallopian tubes and one or both ovaries are also removed - this is referred to as a complete hysterectomy.
Hysterectomies are performed for a number of reasons such as the presence of cancerous growths or severe hemorrhage or recurrent infection.
The procedure does not affect sexual function, but menstruation will stop, and some signs of menopause may be present after a complete hysterectomy.
