Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Objectives:
1. To evaluate differences in total operating time between subjects undergoing AM compared to VM.
2. To evaluate differences in morcellation time between AM and VM.
3. To evaluate differences in the amount of total narcotic use during hospital admission between AM and VM through morphine milligram equivalents (MME).
4. To evaluate differences in the patient's subjective pain assessment via Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) before surgery, at 2-weeks, and at 6 week post-operative visits in both AM and VM groups.
5. To evaluate differences in the patient's pain medication usage as reported by the patient verbally at 24-hours post-operatively and 2-weeks post surgery between AM and VM groups.
6. To evaluate differences in body image survey (BIS) scores at enrollment and 6-week postoperative visit between the AM group compared to VM group.
7. To evaluate differences in overall Quality of Life (QoL) scores at enrollment and 6-week postoperative visit between the AM group compared to VM group.
8. To evaluate differences in Quality of Recovery (QoR) scores at enrollment and at 24-hours post-operatively, and then 2-weeks post surgery between AM and VM group.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Abdominal Morcellation
Abdominal morcellation will occur following completion of the hysterectomy. Route of incision will be either suprapubic or umbilical incision - based on surgeon preferences. All steps and instruments have been standardized for abdominal morcellation.
Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy
Participants will be randomized into either abdominal or vaginal morcellation at time of total laparoscopic hysterectomy
Vaginal Morcellation
Vaginal morcellation will occur following completion of the hysterectomy. All steps and instruments have been standardized for vaginal morcellation.
Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy
Participants will be randomized into either abdominal or vaginal morcellation at time of total laparoscopic hysterectomy

Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy
Participants will be randomized into either abdominal or vaginal morcellation at time of total laparoscopic hysterectomy
