Removing ovaries and fallopian tubes through the vagina
This study tests a less invasive way to remove the ovaries and fallopian tubes through the vagina, which may lead to faster recovery and less pain compared to traditional surgery. It is for people having this surgery for non-cancerous reasons.

This study looks at using an ultrasound scan to help doctors choose which patients may be good candidates for a type of vaginal surgery called vNOTES. It may help improve safety and outcomes by matching the right patients to the right approach.
This study looks at removing fallopian tubes during other planned surgeries to help prevent ovarian cancer. You may be able to join if you are at least 45 years old, are female or assigned female at birth, and are having non-gynecologic surgery (like gallbladder or hernia repair).
This trial is comparing two ways to remove the fallopian tubes and ovaries during a vaginal hysterectomy for pelvic organ prolapse: one using energy-based devices (like a cauterizing tool) and the other using a standard cold scalpel method. It will help determine if the energy-based approach offers any benefits, such as less blood loss or faster recovery.
This trial is testing a newer, less invasive way to perform a hysterectomy called vNOTES. It uses a small camera inserted through the vagina to help surgeons remove the uterus, and may offer faster recovery for women with non-cancerous conditions.
This study compares two minimally invasive surgery methods for removing ovarian cysts or ovaries: one through a small incision in the belly button and one through the vagina. The goal is to see which approach leads to better recovery and less pain.
This study compares two ways to remove the uterus without a big belly cut: standard vaginal surgery versus a newer keyhole method (vNOTES). Both aim to help women with non-cancerous uterine conditions recover faster and avoid a large incision.
