Preserving Your Future: Myomectomy (Fibroid Removal) What is a Myomectomy? A myomectomy is a specialized surgical procedure used to remove uterine fibroids—non-cancerous growths of the muscle tissue in the uterus. Unlike a hysterectomy, which removes the entire organ, a myomectomy only removes the fibroids (myomas) and reconstructs the uterine wall. Depending on the size, number, and location of the fibroids, our surgeons utilize three advanced approaches: Abdominal Myomectomy (Laparotomy): Performed through a traditional incision in the lower abdomen, typically used for very large or deeply embedded fibroids. Laparoscopic Myomectomy: A minimally invasive "keyhole" surgery using small incisions and a camera. This often includes Robotic-Assisted options for enhanced precision during uterine reconstruction. Hysteroscopic Myomectomy: Used for fibroids located inside the uterine cavity (submucosal). This is an incisionless procedure performed through the natural opening of the cervix. Why is this Procedure Personally Vital for You? A myomectomy is the gold standard for women who want a definitive solution for fibroids without losing the uterus. This pathway is personally vital for you if: You Wish to Preserve Fertility: By removing the obstructions and repairing the uterine muscle, this procedure can improve your chances of successful conception and pregnancy. You Suffer from Heavy Menstrual Bleeding: Fibroids often cause prolonged, heavy periods that lead to anemia and exhaustion. Removing them restores your blood levels and energy. Pelvic Pressure or Pain is Constant: Large fibroids can press against the bladder or rectum, causing frequent urination or bowel discomfort. A myomectomy relieves this structural pressure. You Prefer Uterine-Sparing Surgery: For many women, maintaining their reproductive anatomy is a personal priority, and this procedure offers that balance of health and wholeness. The Path to Restoration and Stability The goal of our myomectomy program is to eradicate the fibroids and restore the structural integrity of your uterus. This pathway is designed to: Provide Specialized Uterine Reconstruction: Our surgeons use multi-layered suturing techniques to ensure the uterine wall is strong and healthy following the removal of the growths. Ensure Clinical Readiness through Rigorous Screening: To map the exact location of every fibroid and ensure surgical safety, we require a full medical history, diagnostic X-rays (including chest X-rays and detailed pelvic Ultrasound or MRI), and comprehensive blood tests (specifically checking hemoglobin for anemia and clotting profiles). A Focused Recovery and Stabilization Window: Because the uterine muscle has been repaired, it requires dedicated time to heal. We focus on a 2–3 week recovery and stabilization period. This timeframe is essential for monitoring internal healing, managing post-operative inflammation, and ensuring your system is perfectly stabilized before you resume your normal physical routine. All details are subject to doctor evaluation for the final treatment plan.
