Advanced Myomectomy Surgery by Expert Gynaecologist

The menstrual cycle is not a significant factor in determining the timing of a myomectomy. The menstrual cycle had no effect on the operative blood loss during the myomectomy.

Myomectomy is of 4 different types.

• Abdominal myomectomy.
• Hysteroscopic myomectomy.
• Laparoscopic myomectomy.
• Robotic myomectomy. 

However, the type of surgical procedure for treatment depends on the size of the fibroid and the severity of the condition.

The recovery period depends on the type of myomectomy and the severity of the condition.

• The recovery period for abdominal myomectomy is four to six weeks.
• The recovery period for laparoscopic myomectomy is two to four weeks.
• The recovery period for hysteroscopic myomectomy is two to three days.

Like any other surgical procedure, myomectomy is also associated with certain risks. Some common risk factors are-

• Bleeding
• Chances of injury to internal organs
• In some rare cases, the chances of spreading a cancerous tumor
• Chances of infection

Different types of myomectomy are ideal for different conditions

• Abdominal myomectomy is best for large-size fibroids growing in your uterine wall.
• If you have smaller and fewer fibroids, then a laparoscopic myomectomy may be better.

If you have smaller fibroids inside your uterus, then a hysteroscopic myomectomy may be better.
