    Abstract:

    Objective:To investigate the impact of total hysterectomy on cognitive function in women of reproductive age. Methods:Premenopausal women who underwent total hysterectomy for non-malignant diseases from January 2007 to December 2016 in the Department of Gynecology,Zhongda Hospital Southeast University were collected as the total hysterectomy group(n=296),while subjects who underwent myomectomy at the same time were collected as control group(n=305). One follow-up questionnaire survey including mini-mental state examination(MMSE),Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA)and Kupperman menopause index(KMI)was conducted from 2017 to 2018. Results:MMSE score showed that 3 subjects in the total hysterectomy group were found cognitive dysfunction,while no subject was found cognitive dysfunction in the control group. The difference was not statistically significant(P=0.119). MoCA score showed that 7 subjects in the total hysterectomy group and 1 subject in the control group were found cognitive dysfunction during follow-up,and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.035). Among those women with normal cognitive function,the incidence of cognitive errors in the total hysterectomy group was higher than that in the control group(P < 0.05). KMI score showed that the incidence of menopausal symptoms in the total hysterectomy group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P < 0.001). Conclusion:Cognitive function declines in long-term period in women of reproductive age who undergo total hysterectomy,which may be related to ovarian function decline.
