Non-Descent Vaginal Hysterectomy (NDVH)
What is Non-Descent Vaginal Hysterectomy (NDVH)?
Non-Descent Vaginal Hysterectomy (NDVH) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to remove the uterus through the vaginal canal without the need for abdominal incisions. Unlike traditional hysterectomy methods, NDVH does not require the uterus to be prolapsed or descended, making it a less invasive option for women needing a hysterectomy.
When and why do people go for Non-Descent Vaginal Hysterectomy (NDVH)?
People opt for Non-Descent Vaginal Hysterectomy (NDVH) for various medical reasons, including:
- Uterine Fibroids: Large or symptomatic fibroids causing pain, bleeding, or pressure symptoms.
- Abnormal Uterine Bleeding: Persistent and irregular bleeding that does not respond to other treatments.
- Endometriosis: Severe endometriosis causing pain and other complications.
- Adenomyosis: Painful and heavy menstrual bleeding caused by the presence of endometrial tissue within the uterine walls.
- Chronic Pelvic Pain: Pain not relieved by other treatments.
- Gynecological Cancers: Early-stage cancer of the uterus, cervix, or ovaries.
What makes Non-Descent Vaginal Hysterectomy (NDVH) different from other treatment options?
Non-Descent Vaginal Hysterectomy (NDVH) offers several advantages over other hysterectomy methods:
- Minimally Invasive: NDVH avoids abdominal incisions, resulting in less post-operative pain and quicker recovery.
- Shorter Hospital Stay: Patients often have shorter hospital stays compared to abdominal or laparoscopic hysterectomy.
- Reduced Complications: Lower risk of wound infections, hernias, and other complications associated with abdominal surgeries.
- Better Cosmetic Results: No visible scars since the surgery is performed through the vaginal canal.
- Faster Recovery: Most patients experience a quicker return to normal activities compared to traditional hysterectomy methods.

Life after Non-Descent Vaginal Hysterectomy (NDVH) generally improves in several ways:
- Symptom Relief: Patients typically experience relief from symptoms such as heavy bleeding, pelvic pain, and pressure.
- Improved Quality of Life: Enhanced physical and emotional well-being due to the alleviation of chronic symptoms.
- Quick Recovery: Faster recovery time allows patients to return to their daily routines sooner.
- No Visible Scars: The cosmetic benefits of having no abdominal scars contribute to a positive body image.
