Myomectomy

At MASSH , we recognize the impact that PCOS/PCOD (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome/Polycystic Ovary Disease) can have on a woman's reproductive health, including the presence of uterine fibroids. As part of our comprehensive care for women with PCOS/PCOD, we offer Myomectomy, a surgical procedure aimed at removing uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus. Our team of skilled gynaecologists and minimally invasive surgeons is dedicated to providing individualised treatment plans to address the unique needs and goals of each patient.

Myomectomy is a surgical procedure performed under general anaesthesia to remove fibroids from the uterus. Unlike hysterectomy, which involves the complete removal of the uterus, myomectomy allows women to preserve their fertility and retain their uterus. This is particularly important for women with PCOS/PCOD who may desire to conceive in the future.

There are different approaches to performing myomectomy, including laparoscopic myomectomy and hysteroscopic myomectomy. The specific technique used depends on factors such as the size, number, and location of the fibroids, as well as the patient's individual circumstances. During laparoscopic myomectomy, small incisions are made in the abdomen, and a laparoscope and specialised instruments are used to remove the fibroids. Hysteroscopic myomectomy, on the other hand, involves the removal of fibroids through the cervix using a hysteroscope and specialised instruments.

The benefits of myomectomy for women with PCOS/PCOD are significant. By removing uterine fibroids, myomectomy can alleviate symptoms such as heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, and pressure. It can also improve fertility outcomes for women trying to conceive by creating a healthier uterine environment. With advances in minimally invasive techniques, myomectomy offers several advantages, including smaller incisions, reduced postoperative pain, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.

At MASSH, we prioritise patient-centred care and tailored treatment plans. Our experienced surgeons will thoroughly evaluate your condition, including the size, number, and location of fibroids, as well as your fertility goals, to determine the most appropriate approach to myomectomy. We will discuss the potential benefits, risks, and alternatives to help you make an informed decision about your treatment. Throughout your treatment journey, our team will provide compassionate support and guidance.
