Human: How do I know if I'm a good candidate for a hysterectomy? Assistant: 
You may be a good candidate for a hysterectomy if you have severe uterine fibroids, abnormal uterine bleeding that cannot be controlled with medication, pelvic pain or discomfort, and other symptoms related to the uterus. It is important to discuss your options with your doctor so they can determine if you are a good candidate for surgery.
