About the Procedure

What is Myomectomy?

Myomectomy is a surgical procedure to remove uterine fibroids (benign muscular tumours of the uterus) while preserving the uterus itself, making it the preferred option for women who wish to retain fertility or avoid hysterectomy. It is recommended when fibroids cause heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, pressure symptoms, or infertility. The technique used depends on the size, number, and location of the fibroids.

Who may be considered?

Myomectomy may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.

How does it work?

An open surgical approach through a lower abdominal incision, best suited for large, numerous, or deeply embedded fibroids that cannot be safely managed laparoscopically.

3 approaches available for this procedure:

Abdominal (Open) Myomectomy

For Large/Multiple Fibroids

An open surgical approach through a lower abdominal incision, best suited for large, numerous, or deeply embedded fibroids that cannot be safely managed laparoscopically.

Comprehensive Investigations

Estimated cost: $200 - $500

Pelvic ultrasound, MRI pelvis, CBC, blood grouping, coagulation profile, hormonal panel, ECG, endometrial biopsy (if indicated)

Treatment / Procedure Estimate

Estimated cost in India: $3,200 - $5,800

Stay in India

Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~1 day
Hospitalisation: ~4-5 days
Recovery period (outside hospital): ~14-18 days recommended
Total stay: approx 19-24 days

Usually Included in Hospital Package

  • Surgeon and anaesthesia fees
  • Operation theatre and hospital stay
  • Standard ward/room accommodation
  • Routine post-op medications
  • Follow-up consultation before discharge

Usually Not Included

  • International/domestic flights
  • Visa and travel insurance
  • Hotel/guest house stay before and after admission
  • Blood transfusion (if required)
  • ICU stay in case of complications

Recovery and follow-up

Recovery time depends on the surgical approach, ranging from about a week after hysteroscopic myomectomy to 4-6 weeks after open abdominal myomectomy, with heavy lifting and strenuous activity avoided during this period. A follow-up scan is usually advised to confirm uterine healing before resuming fertility attempts.

Risks

As with any uterine surgery, risks may include bleeding, infection, scarring, uterine rupture in future pregnancies, and rarely, recurrence of fibroids requiring further treatment. The surgical team will assess individual risk factors before recommending the safest approach.

Alternatives

Depending on symptom severity and fertility goals, alternatives may include uterine fibroid embolization, medical management with hormonal therapy, MRI-guided focused ultrasound, or hysterectomy for women who do not wish to preserve the uterus.

Common questions

FAQs about Myomectomy in UAE

What is Myomectomy?
Myomectomy is a health condition whose presentation and severity can vary between patients. A clinician considers the reported symptoms, medical history, physical examination, relevant risk factors and appropriate investigations rather than relying on one symptom or test alone.
What are the symptoms and health risks of Myomectomy?
Symptoms and health effects of Myomectomy depend on the underlying cause, duration and severity. A person may have condition-related symptoms, reduced function or complications, while some people have few obvious symptoms. New, worsening or severe symptoms should be discussed with a qualified clinician; symptoms alone do not establish a diagnosis.
How is Myomectomy diagnosed?
Assessment for Myomectomy usually starts with a detailed history and examination. Depending on the concern, the clinician may review previous records, order blood tests, imaging or other condition-appropriate investigations, and arrange specialist review. The diagnosis and treatment plan should be based on the complete clinical picture and not on an online page alone.
How is Myomectomy treated?
Treatment for Myomectomy depends on the confirmed diagnosis, severity, cause, overall health and treatment goals. It may include observation or lifestyle and supportive care, medicines, rehabilitation, specialist monitoring, or a procedure such as Myomectomy when clinically appropriate. A specialist should explain expected benefits, limitations, alternatives and risks.
Can Myomectomy be treated without a procedure?
Many patients with Myomectomy may first be considered for non-surgical care, such as monitoring, medicines, rehabilitation, nutrition or activity changes, symptom management and treatment of related health issues. Whether this is suitable depends on the diagnosis and response to care; non-surgical treatment should not be stopped or changed without medical advice.
When is Myomectomy considered for Myomectomy?
Myomectomy may be considered only when it is appropriate for the confirmed diagnosis and the expected benefit outweighs the individual risks. The decision may depend on symptom severity, investigation results, previous treatment, overall health and the patient's goals. A specialist should discuss alternatives and recovery before any procedure is planned.
Which doctor treats Myomectomy?
Myomectomy is commonly assessed by a Gynaecology specialist. Depending on the diagnosis, a radiologist, physician, surgeon, rehabilitation professional or other member of a multidisciplinary team may also contribute. The appropriate doctor depends on the symptoms, confirmed diagnosis and whether a procedure is being considered.
How do I choose a doctor for Myomectomy?
Compare a Gynaecology doctor's experience with Myomectomy, the type of cases they manage, relevant procedure experience where applicable, hospital affiliation, diagnostic approach, multidisciplinary support and follow-up plan. Ask which treatment options fit your diagnosis and what information the doctor needs before giving an opinion.
What documents do international patients need to share for a medical evaluation?
Share a concise medical summary, symptom timeline, previous diagnoses, investigation and imaging reports, procedure or biopsy reports where relevant, current medicines, allergies and related treatment records. Provide clear copies with translations when needed. The reviewing doctor may request additional information before giving an opinion.
How does GAF Healthcare help international patients plan treatment in India?
Our care coordination team can review the initial information, help identify suitable doctors and hospitals, request a medical opinion where available, explain next steps and indicative cost information, and support practical planning before travel. A remote opinion does not replace an in-person examination or emergency care.
