It's also important to add that hysterectomy increases a woman's risk for heart disease, dementia, lung cancer and osteoporosis. If the ovaries are removed, it is female castration just as it is when the testicles are removed from a man. Recently Dr. Oz had a show about hysterectomy and explained that women who are hysterectomized have a shorter life span than intact women, along with the fact that over 80% of hysterectomies are unnecessary.
