Hysterectomies
A hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus. Removal of the uterus renders the patient unable to bear children (as does removal of ovaries and fallopian tubes), and changes her hormonal levels considerably, so the surgery is normally recommended for only a few specific circumstances:
- Certain types of reproductive system cancers (uterine, cervical, ovarian) or tumors
- As a prophylactic treatment for those with either a strong family history of reproductive system cancers (especially breast cancer in conjunction with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation) or as part of their recovery from such cancers
- Severe and intractable endometriosis (overgrowth of the uterine lining) and/or adenomyosis (a more severe form of endometriosis, where the uterine lining has grown into and sometimes through the uterine wall) after pharmaceutical and other non-surgical options have been exhausted
- Postpartum to remove either a severe case of placenta praevia (a placenta that has either formed over or inside the birth canal) or placenta accreta (a placenta that has grown into and through the wall of the uterus to attach itself to other organs), as well as a last resort in case of excessive postpartum bleeding
- For transmen, as part of their gender transition
- For severe developmental disabilities

"I can not begin to express how having Dr. Marcantel as our doctor shaped our entire prenatal care and delivery experience for both children. He has a magical way about his care - patient, soothing, empathetic, humorous, focused, and professional. He had this way of making me feel like I was his only patient. His responses to my questions were thoughtful and his use of analogies and storytelling made the abundance of information all so easy to understand! I received excellent care from the other 3 doctors in the office as well; each had his/her own unique way of taking great care of me, even after my delivery with my second child. As I reflect on that glorious time, I will always smile fondly on the amazing experience I had with your team in the office and in the hospital!"
