    A hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus - it can be total/complete (removing the body, fundus, and cervix of the uterus; often called "complete") or partial (removal of the uterine body while leaving the cervix intact; also called "supracervical").

    If you had a hysterectomy you cannot get pregnant.

    I was cofused by that too, but OP actually has the spelling correct. It is this:

    A hysterotomy is an incision in the uterus, commonly combined with a laparotomy during a caesarean section. Hysterotomies are also performed during fetal surgery.

    In fetal surgery, without inhibition of uterine contractions, premature labor is a complication that occurs in 100% of hysterotomy cases.

    I don't know enough about this to comment, but J-9 would be the one to explain to OP.
