In addition, the intestine and the area to be affected will be prepared for the procedure. This surgery involves a night stay in hospital at IM CLINIC.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>TYPES OF MTF HYSTERECTOMY<\/h2>\n<p><strong>The hysterectomy procedure<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hysterectomy and adnexectomy is performed under general anaesthesia and usually lasts about two hours. The IM Gender Unit medical team will perform this operation, choosing the most appropriate technique for each case. There are <strong>three basic ways <\/strong>to approach the operation:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Abdominal route<\/strong>: This consists of making a small incision in the lower abdomen, which is then concealed by the pubic hair. From this incision, the womb and ovaries are removed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Laparoscopic: <\/strong>This technique requires three separate incisions, from which a gas (carbon dioxide) is introduced to swell the abdomen. After entering the abdominal cavity using laparoscopic forceps, the uterus and adnexa are removed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vaginal route: <\/strong>This technique is very complex to apply in trans men and is discarded from the outset, as it is used in cases of patients with uterine prolapse or in extreme cases in vaginas that are very dilated due to previous births.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Using any of the three routes described above, the ultimate goal of total hysterectomy and adnexectomy (removal of the uterus and ovaries) is to access the abdominal cavity, separate the womb and ovaries from their attachment sites and blood supply with the final removal of both organs and careful closure of the abdomen.<\/p>\n<h2>THE POST-OPERATIVE PERIOD AFTER MTF HYSTERECTOMY<\/h2>\n<p><span><strong>Returning home after a hysterectomy<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The day after the operation, the patient can start eating and can get up and walk around. Staying in bed or stretched out for long hours may delay recovery and even cause complications. Approximately 72 hours after the hysterectomy, the surgeon may decide to discharge you from the hospital, but you will still have to rest and follow the instructions of the medical team. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>For a few months, the area around the wound suffers heightened sensitivity that will gradually decrease. After a short time, the pubic hair grows back covering the area where the incision was made, leaving the fine scar completely hidden.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>THE RESULTS OF THE MFT HYSTERECTOMY<\/h2>\n<p><span><strong>The results<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>After the hysterectomy, it is important that you follow all the recommendations of your medical team, such as medication and post-operative visits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><strong>Post-operative visits<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>It is very important not to skip any of the post-operative visits with a member of the IM Gender team. Only they will be able to assess the evolution of the recovery from the hysterectomy. At all times, the patient will have access to a post-operative support phone number to resolve any questions that may arise, as well as a specialised physiotherapy service if desired.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>IM GENDER team<\/p>\n<p>At IM GENDER we have been specialising in the care of transgender people for more than 20 years.
