A member asked:
Does hysterectamy cause hair loss and more body hair?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can: A hysterectomy by itself involves removal of just the uterus and should not lead to these symptoms. However, if your hysterectomy also involved removal of your ovaries, you may have changes in body hair amount and pattern.
