Fibroid Removal / Myomectomy
Removing fibroids while keeping the womb, and repairing it carefully, can ease symptoms and prepare it for a future pregnancy.
Fertility Preserving Gynaecological Surgery
Removing fibroids with a future pregnancy in mind
Myomectomy removes fibroids and leaves the womb in place. Depending on where the fibroids are, it may be done by hysteroscopy, laparoscopy or open surgery. For women hoping to conceive, the quality of the repair to the womb wall is especially important.
Not every fibroid affects fertility. Knowing which ones matter helps avoid unnecessary surgery.
Dr Jasdev explains which of your fibroids are likely to affect pregnancy, and which can be left alone.
Careful assessment before surgery
Scans, symptoms and past operations are reviewed, so surgery is only suggested when it is likely to help.
Fertility kept in mind
If you hope to conceive in future, surgery is planned to protect your womb, tubes and ovaries as far as possible.
Clear recovery guidance
You will know what recovery involves, when to return to normal activities and when your review is due.
What a fertility focused myomectomy gives you
- Removal of fibroids likely to affect pregnancy
- A careful repair of the womb wall
- Clear advice on the timing of pregnancy and birth
How your care is planned
Each stage is explained so you know why surgery is being considered, what it involves and how recovery will go. You can take time to decide.
Map the fibroids with ultrasound or MRI
Choose hysteroscopic, keyhole or open surgery
Plan recovery and when to try for pregnancy
Choosing the right approach
Fibroids inside the cavity are removed through the cervix by hysteroscopy. Fibroids in the wall or on the outside may be removed by keyhole or open surgery. The womb wall is stitched in layers to make it strong for pregnancy. Any tissue removed is sent for laboratory testing, as is standard.
Who may benefit
Women with fibroids that change the shape of the womb cavity, cause heavy bleeding or pain, or may be linked to infertility or miscarriage. Fibroids that sit mainly on the outside of the womb often do not affect fertility and may be left alone.
What to expect
Recovery ranges from a few days after hysteroscopy to about six weeks after open surgery. Depending on the depth of surgery, you may be advised to wait three to six months before trying, and a caesarean birth may be recommended.
