Book with Dr Amita Dube
The central point
Myomectomy is one option for fibroids, not the automatic answer to every scan finding.

Symptoms, fibroid size and location, anaemia, age, fertility goals, previous treatment and surgical risk all influence whether observation, medicine, another procedure or myomectomy is appropriate.

What the consultation covers

The decisions that need a clear answer.

01

02

Map the fibroids

Review number, size and location and whether further imaging or testing is needed.

03

Compare approaches

Discuss hysteroscopic, laparoscopic or open surgery where relevant, including conversion or additional treatment possibilities.

04
