A member asked:

After having a partial hysterectomy, will i still have my period?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Post hysterectomy: Sometimes we performed what is called a partial hysterectomy, meaning some remains of the cervix are still present. This can cause bleeding after a hysterectomy. Depending on how much cervical tissue is left behind you can expect some form of light bleeding.
