Hysterectomy, as any major operation, can cause complications, as hemorrhage which may occur in some cases and sometimes requiring blood transfusion. Recent study proved that misoprostol success in reducing blood loss during total abdominal hysterectomy when used once before the surgery.

In this study we tried to assess the efficacy of misoprostol in minimize blood loss during hysterectomy when used as single preoperative dose via rectal route. The reduction of blood flow may be due to the combined effect of myometrial contraction and vasoconstrictive effect ;
