  • Hysterectomy can lead to various symptoms threatening decent quality of life. As the frequency of hysterectomy increases, there are many patients who want to take oriental medicine treatments for complications. Several clinical studies have reported the effectiveness of oriental medicine treatment for post-hysterectomy complications. Out of these symptoms, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV, hereafter) are indicated at about 20-40% of frequency within patients with general anesthesia, and they may occur not only during recovery from operation, but also after discharge. Although the incidence of PONV has decreased now thanks to the usage of antiemetics, PONV still causes some difficulties for patients returning to daily life. This study reports two cases of post-hysterectomy complications such as nausea, dizziness, vomiting, general weakness, and coldness of the limbs, which had good responses to herbal medication and acupuncture.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to examine the relationship between pre and post operative sexual condition, differences in sexual attitude through post operational periods, and the relationship between sexual attitude and satisfaction. Method: Data was collected with questionares from 119 women registered in the gynecology department of a general hospital in Seoul who had undergone a hysterectomy. Result: There was a significant difference between the condition of pre and post operation coital frequency, sexual satisfaction, and spouse's attitude toward the extraction of the partner's uterus. There was a significant difference between their views of the operation. Twelve months after the operation sexual attitude of sexual aspects changed, but not in physical and psychological aspects. There was a significant difference between sexual attitude and satisfaction on sexual, psychological aspects, but not physical aspects. Conclusion: The findings suggest that a preliminary sexual condition be identified before surgery, scheduling the operation after helping a spouse gain a positive attitude about the hysterectomy, and couples in their 50's and older get counselling. Increased sexual satisfaction will develop with a belief in positive changes of sexual aspects, but a rapid change should not be expected.
