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. 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? I think it depends on the size of the tumors, i.e., if they are over a certain size, they are too big for a laparoscopic procedure. There is a procedure i heard about where they don't do surgey but somehow stop the blood flow to the fibroids therefore shrinking them. Google it. I had the number but lost it. Good luck! |
