What is Laparoscopic Myomectomy?

Laparoscopic myomectomy is a surgical procedure to remove uterine fibroids (also known as myomas) using a laparoscope, a thin long tube outfitted with a camera. Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growth that might develop during a woman’s childbearing years. In the procedure, small incisions are made on the abdomen to insert the laparoscope in company with other surgical instruments. The surgeon then locates the fibroids and removes them with professional expertise.

Why is a Myomectomy done?

Uterine fibroids are known to cause severe distress and a complex of symptoms, including:

  • Unusually long and heavy menstrual bleeding
  • Pelvic pain
  • Frequent urge to urinate
  • Constipation and bowel incontinence
  • Backaches and severe cramps

Moreover, uterine fibroids are known to actively interfere with your ability to conceive. Hence, for the following three reasons, your physician can recommend you a laparoscopic myomectomy:

  • Your choice to become pregnant and bear children
  • You want to get rid of distressing symptoms without harming your uterus
  • If your uterine fibroids actively interfere with your fertility
