Hysterectomy: Yes. Absolutely. This is a very common reason that this surgery is performed. You just need to get to a good gynecologist and work with them on moving forward.

Yes.: A gynecologist can offer many options for control of painful periods. While it should be considered a last resort, hysterectomy is one of those options.
