This paper reviews the psychological impact of gynecological operations, examining preoperative and postoperative mental health in relation to procedures including hysterectomy, oophorectomy, and endometriosis excision, alongside factors such as pain management, hormonal changes, and social influences. It reports that up to 30% of patients experience anxiety or depression after surgery and discusses interventions aimed at mitigating distress, including preoperative counseling, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and digital health tools, while noting that socioeconomic and cultural factors shape mental health outcomes. The paper’s limitation is that it is presented as an article discussing existing evidence and approaches rather than reporting new primary data. This paper is centrally about endometriosis?—the paper explicitly includes endometriosis excision among the gynecological operations whose postoperative mental state it discusses.
