Reproductive Surgery Overview
If you’re facing infertility, it could be due to structural or anatomical issues within your reproductive organs. In such cases, your fertility specialist might suggest fertility surgery to boost your chances of conception. Don’t worry—most of these procedures are minimally invasive and designed for outpatient recovery.
When is Surgery Necessary?
While many fertility challenges are treated through medications or assisted reproductive technologies like IVF and IUI, anatomical abnormalities can hinder the function of your ovaries, fallopian tubes, or uterus. Surgery can correct these issues and potentially restore reproductive capability.
Benefits of Reproductive Surgery
The primary benefit of these surgical procedures is their ability to remove obstacles that may be preventing pregnancy. Although surgery can sound daunting, many procedures are performed with small incisions, allowing for a quicker recovery in the comfort of your own home.
Understanding Reproductive Surgery
Reproductive surgeries can diagnose and treat fertility issues stemming from anatomical abnormalities. Typically performed using an endoscope, these surgeries offer a real-time view of the internal structures. Procedures can be laparoscopic (inserting a telescope into the abdomen) or hysteroscopic (using a lighted tube to examine the uterus).
Common Reproductive Surgical Procedures
Navigating the world of reproductive surgery can be intimidating, but our skilled doctors are here to guide you through every option. Here are some common procedures we perform:
- Endometriosis Treatments: This condition occurs when uterine tissue grows outside the uterus, often causing pain and infertility. Treatments can range from medication to surgery.
- Scar Tissue Removal: Scar tissue can block the fallopian tubes or ovaries, hindering fertility. Surgical intervention can help remove these obstructions.
- Uterine Abnormalities: Congenital issues with the uterus can interfere with pregnancy. A hysteroscopic procedure can correct these abnormalities.
- Management of Abnormal Uterine Bleeding: Issues like polycystic ovarian syndrome or uterine fibroids can cause heavy bleeding, which may require hormonal treatments or surgery.
- Ovarian Cystectomy: Cysts on the ovaries can impact fertility. If they’re linked to conditions like endometriosis, laparoscopic surgery may be necessary.
- Tuboplasty: This procedure can help fix blockages in the fallopian tubes, which are essential for fertilization.
- Myomectomy for Fibroids: Fibroids can cause various reproductive issues. A myomectomy removes these growths while preserving the uterus.
