First seen Feb 23, 2026 · Last updated May 03, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study aims to find out if removing the fallopian tubes at the time of hysterectomy causes menopause to start earlier. It includes 2,100 women under 55 who had a hysterectomy and were randomly assigned to have their tubes removed or not. Participants will collect a few drops of blood at home and complete an online questionnaire twice, one year apart. The results will help doctors understand the long-term effects of this preventive surgery.
