Myomectomy is performed to extract uterine fibroids. Fibroids are abnormal growths in the uterus. Your doctor will recommend this surgery if you throw severe pelvic pain, have heavy periods, have extremely irregular bleeding and have the urge to urinate frequently. Fibroid patients opt for a myomectomy when they wish to get pregnant in the future or want to keep their uterus. A myomectomy only removes fibroids in the uterus without causing much harm to it. Before the surgery, your doctor may order you to undergo some tests; professionals will do imaging like MRI and pelvic ultrasound, along with a few blood tests. An avid smoker will be instructed to quit smoking six to eight weeks before the surgery. You will also have to fast by midnight on the day before the surgery. Since you will be administered anaesthesia, you will witness no pain during the surgery. However, after the procedure, you may feel mild discomfort. The recovery time may range anywhere from two to six weeks, depending on the technique and nature of the surgery.
