Removal of the uterus can lead to premature ovarian failure, resulting in decreased estrogen levels in women and accelerated skin aging. Therefore, postoperative hormone replacement therapy with estrogen medications may be administered. The most common complication following hysterectomy and oophorectomy is secondary infection of hematoma, which typically presents as chronic lower abdominal pain along with localized hematoma formation. Treatment usually involves antibiotics and anti-infective measures, and complete recovery generally takes more than one to two months.
