Your Questions About Uterine Fibroids Surgery

Cathy asks…

With uterine fibroids, which procedure is better – laparoscopic or regular myomectomy?

My main concern is to preserve fertility. I don’t care too much about a possible scar or blood loss.

Clare answers:

Cathy, from what I know it depends on the location of the fibroids, outside of the uterus, inside of the vagina, or on the wall of the uterus?

If on wall you need myomectomy. If outside laparoscopy. Because you cannot pierce the uterus and can’t be removed with laparoscope if on wall of uterus.

If main concern is fertility don’t do the uterine embolization, it may induce menopause.

How big are they, how many?
