Summary

This study compares total laparoscopic hysterectomy (removing the whole uterus including the cervix) with subtotal laparoscopic hysterectomy (keeping the cervix) in 500 women with benign conditions like fibroids or endometriosis. The main goal is to see which surgery leads to better quality of life and patient satisfaction three years later. Researchers will also track pain, recovery, and complications to guide future surgical choices.
