Pelvic floor muscle examination is usually necessary after total hysterectomy.
After total hysterectomy by surgical removal of the uterus, it is necessary to clarify the functioning of the pelvic floor muscles (i.e., pelvic floor muscle strength), perform pelvic floor muscle examination (pressure examination and electromyography) under the doctor’s advice and guidance, and carry out rehabilitation of the pelvic floor muscles to prevent prolapse of the anterior wall of the vagina and vaginal laxity.
After hysterectomy, patients are prone to endocrine disorders, fatigue and irritability, insomnia and sleeplessness. They need to pay attention to more rest, develop good living habits, eat a light diet, avoid spicy and oily foods, eat more fruits and vegetables and high-fiber foods to prevent constipation, consume more food containing protein, vitamins and iron, and maintain a calm state of mind, which is conducive to post-operative recovery.
After total hysterectomy, there will be no menstruation, and you can have sex 6-8 weeks after the operation. However, you need to avoid lifting heavy objects, avoid sedentary activities such as long-distance travel, and other behaviors that are likely to increase the abdominal pressure for 3 months, and you need to observe the secretion condition closely.
After total hysterectomy, you need to have regular checkups to see if the vaginal segments are healing and if there is any inflammation. If you have any discomfort, please go to a regular hospital immediately to avoid delaying your condition.
