NCT ID NCT07651449
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether structured education and weekly counseling sessions after a hysterectomy can help women feel less stressed, improve their quality of life, and strengthen their relationship with their partner. The trial involves 60 married women who have had a hysterectomy. Half receive the extra support, while the other half receive standard care. Researchers measure changes in stress, physical and mental well-being, and couple adjustment over time.
