“…Kjerulffe et al 22 reported that 12 and 24 months after hysterectomy symptoms were resolved completely or mostly in 95.8% and 96% women, respectively, while 85.3% and 81.6%, respectively, reported an improvement in health. The reduced SF‐36 scores observed at baseline are consistent with the scores reported for other women with menorrhagia 23 and concur with other findings 10,24 …”

“…The worsening in pain scores is even more difficult to explain, and we intend to address the issue of quality of life in a 5‐ to 10‐year follow up of the same group of women, especially as other studies have not concurred with ours.

“…However, 6 months after surgery these women reached the same level of health and functioning as those in the control group. The authors suggest that the reasons for the operation (bleeding, pelvic pain and discomfort) impact significantly on quality of life and that alleviation of these problems restores quality of life, thereby justifying the surgery (Rannestad et al 2001). Helstrom et al (1994b) studied 104 premenopausal women in order to discover whether mental status affects sexuality both before and after hysterectomy.…”

“…78%) was shown in Roumegue're [39] studies on the improvement of quality of life after one year of surgery. The research conducted on 111 women by Rannestad et al who wanted to compare the level of quality of life before and after hysterectomy procedure showed that the women's quality of life was worse in the period before the operation than after 6 and 12 months following the surgical procedure [40]. Lambden et al [41], who studied the women's mood and life satisfaction in the period before and after surgical procedure drew the conclusions about the improvement of the women's mood as the time after the operation increased (from 88% after 4 months to 93% after 11 months).…”
