Uterine Fibroids Treatment in Loni Kalbhor
Heavy or prolonged periods, pelvic pressure, abdominal discomfort or difficulty conceiving can sometimes be related to uterine fibroids.
Uterine fibroids are common, non-cancerous growths that develop in or around the uterus. Some women have no symptoms and may only discover a fibroid during a routine examination or ultrasound, while others may experience significant bleeding, pain, pressure or fertility concerns.
A uterine fibroid does not always require immediate treatment.
The decision depends on factors such as:
- Whether the fibroid is causing symptoms
- Size and number of fibroids
- Location of the fibroid
- Amount and duration of menstrual bleeding
- Presence of anemia
- Pelvic pain or pressure
- Effect on fertility
- Age and reproductive stage
- Whether you are planning a pregnancy
Quick Answer
Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths that can develop in the uterus. Treatment is not always necessary if they cause no symptoms. When treatment is needed, options may include observation, medicines to control symptoms, hysteroscopic or laparoscopic procedures, myomectomy or other fibroid treatments depending on the size, number, location of the fibroids and the woman’s pregnancy plans.
Where Can Fibroids Develop?
The location of a fibroid can influence the symptoms it produces.
- Intramural Fibroids
These develop within the muscular wall of the uterus.
They may contribute to heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic discomfort or enlargement of the uterus depending on their size and location.
- Submucosal Fibroids
These grow toward the inner cavity of the uterus.
Even relatively small submucosal fibroids can affect menstrual bleeding and, in some cases, fertility because they can alter the shape of the uterine cavity.
- Subserosal Fibroids
These develop toward the outer surface of the uterus.
Large subserosal fibroids may cause pressure symptoms by pressing on nearby organs such as the bladder or bowel.
What Are the Symptoms of Uterine Fibroids?
Many women with fibroids have no symptoms. When symptoms occur, they may include:
- Heavy Menstrual Bleeding
- Painful Periods
- Pelvic Pressure or Heaviness
- Frequent Urination
- Fertility Problems
- Lower Back or Abdominal Pain
How Are Uterine Fibroids Diagnosed?
The first step is usually a detailed medical and gynecological assessment.
Your doctor may ask about:
- Menstrual cycle pattern
- Amount and duration of bleeding
- Pain and pressure symptoms
- Previous pregnancies
- Fertility plans
- Previous pelvic surgery
- Previous ultrasound findings
- Symptoms of anemia
A pelvic examination may also be performed when appropriate.
Tests & Laboratory Facilities
Ultrasound can help assess the uterus and identify the size, number and location of fibroids.
Laboratory investigations may be recommended when clinically appropriate, particularly when symptoms such as heavy menstrual bleeding require further assessment. Availability depends on the specific investigation.
These facilities are available at Bloom Hospital but are not routine diagnostic tests for uterine fibroids. They may be relevant only when the patient is pregnant and requires fetal monitoring. Data
Prescribed medicines related to symptom management or other gynecological care can be accessed through the hospital pharmacy
Types of Treatment for Fibroids
There is no single treatment that is appropriate for every fibroid. Your gynecologist may consider:
| Factor | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Fibroid size | Larger fibroids may cause pressure or bulk symptoms |
| Number of fibroids | Multiple fibroids can influence treatment planning |
| Location | A fibroid affecting the uterine cavity may behave differently from one on the outer uterus |
| Symptoms | Treatment is often considered when bleeding, pain or pressure affects quality of life |
| Age | Treatment planning may differ depending on reproductive stage |
| Pregnancy plans | Some procedures may affect future pregnancy and need careful discussion |
When Is Surgery Needed for Fibroids?
Surgery may be considered when:
- Symptoms are severe or persistent
- Heavy bleeding is causing anemia
- Fibroids are large or increasing in size
- Fibroids are affecting the uterine cavity
- Pelvic pressure is affecting daily life
- Medicines are not providing adequate relief
- Fibroids are contributing to fertility concerns
- The location or size of the fibroid makes a procedure appropriate
The choice of procedure depends heavily on fibroid size, number and location, as well as the patient’s pregnancy plans.
Myomectomy: Removing Fibroids While Preserving the Uterus
A myomectomy is a procedure in which fibroids are removed while leaving the uterus in place.
It may be considered for women who:
- Have significant fibroid symptoms
- Want to preserve the uterus
- Are planning future pregnancy
- Have fibroids in locations that are suitable for removal
Depending on the fibroid’s size and location, myomectomy may be performed through different surgical approaches.
Hysteroscopic Treatment for Fibroids
A hysteroscopic procedure may be considered for certain fibroids that project into the uterine cavity, particularly submucosal fibroids.
A hysteroscope is passed through the vagina and cervix into the uterus, allowing the doctor to see the uterine cavity and treat suitable fibroids without making an abdominal incision.
This approach is not appropriate for every fibroid. The size, depth and location of the fibroid determine whether hysteroscopic treatment is suitable.
Laparoscopic Treatment for Fibroids
For selected patients, Dr. Tejal Borate performs fibroid surgery using laparoscopy, a minimally invasive surgical technique involving small abdominal incisions and a camera.
Laparoscopic myomectomy can be an option for certain fibroids depending on their number, size and location.
Potential benefits of minimally invasive surgery may include smaller incisions and recovery considerations compared with some open procedures, but suitability varies from patient to patient.
A gynecologist can determine which surgical approach is appropriate after evaluating the fibroids.
When Should You See a Gynecologist?
You should consider a gynecological evaluation if you experience:
- Very heavy menstrual bleeding
- Periods lasting longer than usual
- Severe or persistent menstrual pain
- Bleeding between periods
- Persistent pelvic pain or pressure
- Increasing abdominal size without an obvious explanation
- Frequent urination or difficulty emptying the bladder
- Constipation associated with pelvic pressure
- Pain during sexual intercourse
- Persistent tiredness or weakness associated with heavy periods
- Difficulty becoming pregnant
Seek urgent medical attention for very heavy vaginal bleeding or sudden severe pelvic pain.
