Patient's question:
My wife had her uterus removed due to illness. I would like to ask, where does the sperm go after the hysterectomy?Doctor's answer:
After a hysterectomy, semen inserted into the vagina will be completely expelled from the body. Without a hysterectomy, the majority of semen inserted will be expelled from the body, with only a small amount entering the cervix and potentially the uterus. Whether or not the uterus is removed has no significant impact on the destination of semen. It is not, as some might imagine, that all the semen enters the uterus. Only a very small number of sperm can actually enter.
