Abstract:
Objective To investigate women's psychological o utcome and its effect factors before and after hysterectomy. Methods In the clinical prospective study, 83 women were investigated for the ir psychiatric status with BDI, HAMD and SCL-90 questionnaires at the time of a dmission and 3 months after hysterectomy. Results The posto perative scales of BDI, HAMD, and SCL-90 were significantly lower than the preo perative ones. The morbidity of depression was decreased from 33.7% to 10.1%. Th e changes of SCL-90 were varied among different age groups. Before hysterectomy , HAMD scales were related negatively to women's educational level, but positiv ely to chief complaints. However, after hysterectomy, HAMD scales were related p ositively to parity, having other physical diseases, but negatively related to p atient's age. Conclusion Hysterectomy is beneficial to wom en's psychiatric and somatic health. Depression occurring before and after hyst erectomy is seen more often in women younger, having more parity, less-educate d, complaining of dysmenorrhea and/or menorrhagia and having other diseases.
