There is big one and 3 small ones. Mainly we want to remove the uterous. Heavy bleeding during and after menses. No family and does not intend to have one. We want to choose between LHS and Abdomen hysterectomy. Please advise which is better? We ideally want LHS as it is less painful and easier post recovery process. ids there a good hospital you can suggest us in Bangalore?

Hi,
Yes, it is true that laparoscopic hysterectomy will have less pain and short postoperative recovery period.
So she can go for laparoscopic hysterectomy unless uterus is of very big size.
Below link gives list of gynecological hospitals in Bangalore, you can choose according to your priority.
