If you have been recommended by your doctor to undergo Fibroid Surgery, the following steps need to be practiced before the procedure: 

1. Tests – Before the surgery is performed, the doctor will run various tests to see whether you’re healthy enough to undergo myomectomy. Some of them include:

• Blood tests

• Electrocardiogram

• MRI Scan

• Pelvic Ultrasound

Depending on the risk factors, a combination of the tests will be done.

1. Medications – You will have to stop taking certain medications before the surgery. Consult your doctor and provide him with the complete list of supplements and over-the-counter medicines you take. Ask him whether you should continue taking them or not to avoid any complications.

2. Smoking – Quit smoking 6 – 8 weeks before the surgery as it can intervene with your healing process and prolong the complications.

3. Fasting – You will be required to fast for 8 to 12 hours before the surgery.

After the procedure is completed, the medical experts will follow certain post-procedure guidelines. Keep in mind the following points to avoid any complication:

• You will experience pain after the surgery. The doctors will prescribe some medications to relieve you from the discomfort but it may be temporary. There will also be slight bleeding for the next few weeks.

• Recovery time for laparoscopic myomectomy is two to four weeks. Post that you can resume your normal activities and functions.

• Avoid lifting anything heavy or working out rigorously until your uterus has completely healed. You can consult your doctor and ask when you can resume it.

• Wait for up to six weeks before having sex. Consult your doctor to know more about it.

• If you wish to get pregnant, consult your doctor to know when you can start trying as it may take months for the uterus to fully recover.

• Medications like iron supplements and hormones need to be taken regularly as per the recommendation of the doctor.

Myomectomy is a safe and sound procedure if performed by qualified experts. However, certain risks are associated with this procedure. The following is a set of such complications that may be generated from this operation:

• Heavy bleeding
