  • Hello Andreaanita,

    It's difficult to say at this point, but I'd encourage you to speak to your medical team if you have any questions or concerns. There is some information about hysterectomies and the process on our website, which I hope will be useful for you. If you want to talk to one of our nurses, they are available Monday to Friday between 9am and 5pm and you can call them free on 0808 800 4040

    Best wishes,

  • I was diagnosed with stage 1a1 cervical cancer. So like you, small and only seen under a microscope. I've had two lezzt procedures and they have managed to successfully remove the cancer. However, they have found more precancerous cells, so I might still end up with a hysterectomy to remove the risk of it returning. Your consultant will keep you right, just takes a while to go through all of the loops. I had my diagnosis back in May. 

  • Hi i was diagnosed with stage 1b1 cervical cancer in July i had a radical hysterectomy with lymph node removal just over 3 weeks ago and just been told that they got it all and no more treatment is needed i hope this helps
