A laparoscopic hysterectomy takes away the womb through small cuts in the abdomen using a camera, normally for heavy bleeding, fibroids, endometriosis or prolapse.

The NHS describes a total hysterectomy, removing the womb and cervix, as the most common type; a subtotal hysterectomy leaves the cervix, and the tubes and ovaries may also be taken out.

The NHS says that removing both ovaries brings on the menopause immediately at any age, and that HRT should be offered.

Keyhole surgery normally means less pain and a shorter stay than open surgery, and the NHS points out that full recovery takes about six to eight weeks without heavy lifting.

Risks include bleeding, infection and injury to the bladder or bowel.

Flying home: UK Civil Aviation Authority medical guidance treats 24 hours after keyhole surgery as the earliest point, because gas used in the abdomen needs to clear, but wait until the wounds have been checked.

A Gurgaon quote for laparoscopic hysterectomy is normally made up of these items:

• Pre-operative tests: blood work, imaging and an anaesthetic assessment.
• Theatre and anaesthesia charges: mostly set by time in the operating room.
• Consultant fees: which differ from one hospital to the next.
• Type of hysterectomy: total or subtotal.
• Tubes and ovaries: taken out if planned.
• Length of stay: commonly one to two nights.
• Surgeon's experience: with keyhole surgery.

Ask whether the Gurgaon quote includes the surgeon, theatre, anaesthetist, room, medicines and review appointments, as these are commonly billed separately.
