Hysterectomy in Tijuana, Mexico

A hysterectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the uterus. It is performed to treat medical conditions like uterine fibroids, uterine prolapse, endometriosis, heavy menstrual bleeding, or uterine cancer. In some cases, the procedure may also involve removing the ovaries and fallopian tubes (salpingo-oophorectomy).

Mexico Bariatric Center® has assembled the best minimally invasive OB-GYN surgeons from Mexico, Brazil, and Canada to perform Hysterectomy and Endometrial operations in Hospital Azar to help patients live a more enjoyable life.

Choosing to have a hysterectomy in Tijuana, Mexico, offers access to highly skilled surgeons, modern medical facilities, and more affordable pricing compared to the U.S. or Canada.

How Hysterectomy Surgery Works

A woman’s uterus, also called a womb, is where a baby grows. The lining of the uterus (endometrium) is responsible for menstrual blood during a woman’s cycle. The removal of the uterus, called a hysterectomy, may be necessary if women experience the following nine issues:

  1. Persistent pelvic pain
  2. Uncontrollable vaginal bleeding
  3. Fibroids (benign tumors)
  4. Cancer in the ovaries, cervix, or uterus
  5. Certain infections
  6. Adenomyosis
  7. Pelvic inflammatory disease
  8. Endometriosis
  9. Uterine prolapse

The extent of the hysterectomy depends on the severity of the condition. After this procedure, women cannot menstruate anymore and cannot have babies.

There are three surgical approaches to hysterectomy: Abdominal, Vaginal, Laparoscopic (Robotics).

Hysterectomy is life-changing for women dealing with these health concerns. It’s also an effective treatment for certain cancers and conditions that haven’t responded to other treatments. The hysterectomy is performed in Tijuana, Mexico laparoscopically. This is a minimally invasive surgery using small incisions, resulting in minimal scarring and faster recovery.

Types of Hysterectomy Treatment Options

Types of Hysterectomy

The type of hysterectomy recommended will depend on your medical condition and the specific objectives of the surgery. The most common types include:

  • Partial Hysterectomy: Removes only the uterus, leaving the cervix intact. It is often recommended for conditions like fibroids or heavy bleeding.
  • Total Hysterectomy: Involves the removal of both the uterus and cervix. This is the most common type and is suitable for treating endometriosis or uterine cancer.
  • Radical Hysterectomy: A more extensive procedure for advanced cases like cervical cancer. It includes the removal of the uterus, cervix, part of the vagina, and surrounding tissues, sometimes including lymph nodes.

Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy

Your surgeon will work closely with you to determine the best option for your condition and overall well-being.

Benefits of Hysterectomy

This procedure is designed to address and alleviate symptoms caused by reproductive health issues, such as:

  • Chronic pelvic pain
  • Heavy or abnormal menstrual bleeding
  • Uterine fibroids
  • Uterine or ovarian cancer

Many women report a significant improvement in their quality of life after surgery, with relief from ongoing pain or discomfort.

Can I Have Gastric Sleeve with Hysterectomy?

At Mexico Bariatric Center, we know that some patients may need both a hysterectomy and gastric sleeve surgery to address gynecological conditions, such as fibroids or endometriosis, while simultaneously promoting significant weight loss. Our skilled surgeons can perform both procedures during the same operation if the hysterectomy is completed successfully and the patient is in good condition to move forward.

This combination can help alleviate hormone-related issues, reduce obesity-related health risks, and improve overall quality of life—all in a single surgical procedure with a streamlined recovery. Each case is reviewed closely to ensure the process is safe and smooth, with the highest level of safety and care.

If the initial hysterectomy procedure goes well, our Mexico surgeons are able to perform gastric sleeve in the same procedure.

One of the biggest draws is the cost savings. Medical expenses in Mexico are often 50-70% lower, thanks to reduced operating costs—without any compromise on the quality of care. Hospitals are equipped with advanced surgical technologies, including robotic-assisted systems like the da Vinci®, and staffed by highly trained specialists.
