| Background: The care of the women undergoing hysterectomy should meet their needs, and this must involve their families. However, care such as the provision of sound information, emotional support, and advice, is often missed. Aim: To determine the effect of social media-based educational guidelines on knowledge and practice among women undergoing hysterectomy. Methods: Subjects and method: Design: Quasi-experimental research design was utilized to achieve the aim of this study. Settings: The study was conducted at Mansoura City in Egypt. Sample: A purposive sample of 300 women having a hysterectomy was obtained from social media such as Facebook and WhatsApp groups, 2021 which the online Google form spreadsheet was opened from the beginning of June 2021 to the end of June 2021 it was closed. Two tools used in data collection: (I): A self-administered questionnaire (pre and post-test format) to assess women's demographic characteristics, obstetric, and medical histories; women's knowledge about hysterectomy (pre and post-test format); and (II): women's practice about hysterectomy (pre and posttest format). Results: The present study revealed that there were highly statistically significant differences between women's knowledge and practice regarding hysterectomy pre and post-social media-based educational guidelines implementation.
