Not necessarily. Endometriosis is defined by tissue growing outside the uterus, so removing the uterus alone doesn’t automatically remove endometriosis implants or the inflammation they can drive.


For patients who have both adenomyosis and endometriosis, symptom relief often depends on whether endometriosis is thoroughly identified and excised as part of the surgical plan—not just on whether a hysterectomy is performed. Our team focuses on careful evaluation and complete treatment planning, and we’re happy to discuss whether hysterectomy, excision, or a combined approach fits your symptoms and goals during a consultation.

Is Hysterectomy Right for You?

A hysterectomy alone might not cure endometriosis since implants can exist outside the uterus. Our specialists provide thorough evaluations to tailor surgeries that best address your unique symptoms and pain.
