Hysterectomy, Oophorectomy and Long-term chronic Disease - the HOLD study [ 1/1/2021 - 12/31/2024 ]

Research Grant

Brief description Hysterectomy, with or without the removal of ovaries, undertaken for non-cancerous problems may have long-term consequences for other health conditions like cardiovascular disease and cancer, but existing evidence is inconsistent. This large population-based study will use linked health data from the states and the Commonwealth to investigate these associations. The information from our study will help women and their doctors to make the better-informed decisions about their treatment.
