Hysteroscopic Myomectomy

If the fibroid/fibroids are small and located mostly within the uterine cavity, the procedure may be performed with a hysteroscope.  This scope is place through the cervix and into the uterus and allows the surgeon to directly visualize the inside of the uterus.  If a fibroid is present, a small loop is used to cut the fibroid away from the uterine wall.  No incisions are necessary on your abdomen or on your pelvic organs or vagina.   You may experience some light vaginal bleeding or spotting after this procedure.  This procedure does not require an overnight stay in the hospital.
