Why Myomectomy Is Needed
Myomectomy is performed to remove uterine fibroids, benign muscular growths in the uterine wall, that cause significant symptoms or are affecting fertility, while preserving the uterus for women who wish to retain childbearing potential or simply keep their uterus. It is recommended when fibroids grow large, multiply, or cause complications that medication alone cannot control.
Signs You May Need Myomectomy
Common symptoms include heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain or pressure, frequent urination from a fibroid pressing on the bladder, pain during intercourse, and in some cases difficulty conceiving or recurrent miscarriage linked to fibroid location. Anemia from chronic heavy bleeding is also a frequent reason fibroids are ultimately treated surgically.
Types of Myomectomy
Laparoscopic or robotic-assisted myomectomy removes fibroids through small incisions for smaller to moderate-sized fibroids, offering faster recovery. Hysteroscopic myomectomy removes fibroids that bulge into the uterine cavity through the vagina and cervix without any external incision, while open (abdominal) myomectomy is used for very large or numerous fibroids that need more extensive surgical access.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I still get pregnant after myomectomy?
Yes, myomectomy is specifically designed to preserve fertility, and many women conceive successfully afterward, though your gynecologist may recommend a waiting period and possibly a planned cesarean depending on the surgery's extent.
Will fibroids grow back after myomectomy?
New fibroids can develop over time, especially in women who have surgery at a younger age, so periodic follow-up with your gynecologist helps monitor for recurrence.
How is myomectomy different from hysterectomy for fibroids?
Myomectomy removes only the fibroids and keeps the uterus intact for future fertility, while hysterectomy removes the entire uterus and is a permanent solution typically chosen when fertility is no longer a concern.
How long is recovery after myomectomy?
Recovery ranges from one to two weeks for minimally invasive approaches to four to six weeks for open abdominal myomectomy, depending on the number and size of fibroids removed.
Is myomectomy a major surgery?
It can range from a relatively minor hysteroscopic procedure to a more involved open surgery depending on fibroid size, number, and location, and your gynecologist will recommend the least invasive option suitable for your case.
