Summary

This trial tests whether a structured education program, based on the Roy Adaptation Model, can improve adaptation, self-esteem, and quality of life in women who have had a hysterectomy. About 110 premenopausal women who have undergone the surgery will be randomly assigned to receive either the education program or routine care. Researchers will measure changes in adaptation, self-esteem, and quality of life over eight weeks.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
a structured education program based on the Roy Adaptation Model for women after hysterectomy
What this could lead to
If effective, this program could offer a simple, low-cost way to help women adjust emotionally and physically after hysterectomy.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial. The program may not significantly improve outcomes over standard care, and results may not apply to all women.
