TAH vs TVH

Can you do a TVH is you have had a c-section? My doctor is doing a TAH and I was wondering why not the TVH. My appointment is next week.

Alot of drs won't do a vaginal hyst, if you haven't have a vaginal birth. If you have had a c-section there is a good chance that there will be scar tissue and possible adhesions that they will have to address.
I had my hyst done vaginally and 9 weeks later I was in for another surgery for adhesions (from my gall bladder surgery in 04 and some new from the hyst). If I had had my hyst on abdominally they could have removed the adhesions at that time.

GOOD LUCK

Why not a LSH ? This is something I have wanted to address for a long time......ladies.....Please do your research before you are 100 % sure about your surgeries. I was lucky enough to be offered a laparoscopic hysterectomy and the recovery time was practically nothing. I have 3 tiny incisions no bigger than a the tip of my pinky. Back to my normal life in less than 2 weeks.

it could be that your dr is not experienced in lap hysterectomies. are you wanting to keep your cervix? thats another reason to have a tah instead of a vaginal hysterectomy.
you might also want to get a second opinon. there might be other options available.

I've had both a C-section and a vaginal birth (VBAC). I will be having a LAVH in January. My doctor wants to use laparoscopic in case the scar tissue from the C-section needs addressed. She said sometimes the bladder or other organs can become adhered because of the scar tissue. The only way they'll have to go in abdominally is if that is an issue once they're in and have a look around. The cervix is going, but the ovaries are staying put.
