OBJECTIVE: This study sought to evaluate prevalence of regret with the decision to undergo a hysterectomy at a young age.
METHODS: A retrospective cohort study was performed at two centres and included patients who underwent an elective hysterectomy for benign indications under age 35, between January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2015. Eligible patients were contacted and completed a validated decision regret survey and patient health questionnaire.
RESULTS: A total of 189 patients met the study criteria. Of the 95 patients who could be contacted, 71 consented to participate (response rate, 75%). The most common indications for surgery were menorrhagia (35.2%), uterine fibroids (22.5%), endometriosis (19.7%), and pain (15.5%). Overall, 91.5% of patients agreed that having this surgery was the right decision for them, and 90% said that they would make the same choice in the future. A total of 2.8% regretted the choice that they made, and 14% responded that this caused them harm. Over 95% of patients reported that the decision was either mostly patient driven or shared with the physician.
CONCLUSION: This is the first evaluation of regret after hysterectomy specifically examining a younger patient population. The study results suggest that patients who are appropriately counselled do not regret their decision to proceed with hysterectomy.
