The purpose of this study is to determine if applying a single dose of topical estrogen cream in the operating room at the end of your hysterectomy (removal of uterus and cervix) improves the postoperative experience with bleeding and potential symptoms of dysphoria (a feeling of discomfort or distress). Topical estrogen cream is sometimes used if patients have increased risk of bleeding with surgery but is not currently utilized in a consistent way. This study aims to answer the question of whether this is a helpful treatment and should be included in standard postoperative care.
