    Organ removal
    I have had my gall bladder removed as well as just underwent a complete hysterectomy last March. Does the removal of these organs affect the functioning of my body in any way or what are its implications?

    The TAH causes you not to produce the hormones you once did if you had your ovaries removed as well. Also, and I'm sure you know this, you can no longer have children as the uterus is where the fetus develops.

    Removal of the gall bladder should not affect the functioning of your body in any way.
