Ask A Doctor
Does anyone know the percentage of times a gynecologist removes the appendix when the ovaries and uterus are removed?
Having your appendix removed during the same surgery as your hysterectomy depends a lot on your doctor. Many women have requested their appendix to be removed only to have their doctor say “no” if it is healthy or if there is no medical reason to remove it. Other doctors remove it as routine.
Make sure to talk with your doctor about what he plans to do.
