Planckâs theory and thermodynamics Max Planck described the methods he used to develop his famous blackbody radiation equation in a series of lectures at Columbia University in 1915. These lectures were recorded , and the published document is the information source for these articles.
The ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, cervix and vagina (vaginal canal) make up the female reproductive system. You may need a hysterectomy to treat: Gynecologic cancer. If you have a gynecologic cancer â such as cancer of the uterus or cervix â a hysterectomy may be your best treatment option. Depending on the specific cancer you have and how advanced it is, your other options might include radiation or chemotherapy.
In cases where the ovaries are removed during the hysterectomy, this causes the body to almost immediately go into premature menopause (only if the woman has not already gone through menopause). This is called surgical menopause and occurs because of the sudden loss of estrogen hormones. The symptoms that are experienced during surgical menopause are often more severe and frequent than regular menopause. Usually these symptoms are controlled using hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
