[Conization and hysterectomy from the viewpoint of the surgically treated woman. Results of an inquiry among 814 conized and conized-hysterectomized women].

814 questionnaires of conized and conized-hysterectomized women were evaluated according to menstruation disorders, sexual behaviour, course of pregnancy, medical check-up, carcinophobia, mentality to the operation, pains caused by the operation, and changes of womanliness. 32 percent of the conized women (less than or equal to 45 years old) gave menstruation disorders, mostly hypermenorrhea and dysmenorrhea. Course of pregnancy was not influenced by the conization. Over 80 percent of the women (less than or equal to 45 and greater than 45 years old) said their sexual life were not changed by the conization, in difference to the conized-hysterectomized women: 56 percent (greater than 45 years old) and 69 percent (less than or equal to 45 years old). Half all women were more anxious to get cervical cancer after the conization. The conized women were significantly more to a medical check-up compare to conized-hysterectomized ones. Over 80 percent would like to repeat the conization before removing the uterus. Conized-hysterectomized women felt significantly more less according to womanliness compare to conized ones. 51 percent (less than or equal to 45 years old) and only 35 percent (greater than 45 years old) said no side effects after hysterectomy. Mostly the women complained of pains of the bladder, menses-like mastodynia, and labile circulatory system. There was no significant difference according the answers about abdominal or vaginal hysterectomy with or without adnexectomy.
