Several reasons for why you may need a hysterectomy include:
- Prolapsed uterus

- Uterine, cervical, or ovarian cancer
- Uterine pain, bleeding, or other problems
Hysterectomies & You
In performing a minimally invasive procedure hysterectomy, we will remove your uterus through smaller, less visible incisions in a variety of areas including your vagina, belly, or belly button. There are rarely visible scars after MIP hysterectomies and not all patients are suited for this procedure. Our Newport Beach urogynecologist is an expert at diagnosing which surgical technique would be the best fit for your uterus.
Depending on your specific medical condition, Dr. Hashemi may suggest to remove all, or only part of, your uterus. In conducting an abdominal hysterectomy, we remove the patient’s uterus through a small incision across their belly.
The various types of hysterectomies include:
- Total hysterectomy – Surgeon removes the entire uterus and cervix.
- Supracervical (subtotal) hysterectomy – Surgeon only removes the upper portion of the uterus.
- Total Hysterectomy with Bilateral salpingo-opherectomy (removing the uterus and cervix with ovaries and tubes)
