Fibroid Removal Surgery (Laparoscopic Myomectomy)

Laparoscopic myomectomy is a minimally invasive surgery to remove fibroids (non-cancerous tumors) from the uterus. Unlike open surgery, this technique uses small keyhole incisions and a laparoscope (a camera-guided tool), resulting in quicker healing, less pain, and minimal scarring.

At A1 Laparoscopy Hospital, we specialize in preserving the uterus while effectively removing fibroids—helping women maintain fertility and restore quality of life.


You may need laparoscopic myomectomy if you experience:

  • Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
  • Pelvic pain or pressure
  • Frequent urination or constipation caused by fibroid pressure
  • Difficulty getting pregnant or maintaining a pregnancy
  • Rapidly growing or large fibroids
  • Fibroids that distort the shape of the uterus

Our gynecology specialists will assess your condition through ultrasound and other tests before recommending surgery.


  • Intramural fibroids (within the uterine wall)
  • Subserosal fibroids (on the outer surface of the uterus)
  • Submucosal fibroids (protruding into the uterine cavity)
  • Pedunculated fibroids (on a stalk attached to the uterus)

  • Surgery is performed under general anesthesia
  • 3 to 4 small incisions are made in the lower abdomen
  • A laparoscope and instruments are inserted to locate and remove fibroids
  • The uterus is carefully reconstructed and sutured
  • Removed fibroids are extracted through a small incision
  • Incisions are closed with stitches or glue

The procedure typically takes 1.5 to 3 hours depending on the number and size of fibroids.


  • Uterus is preserved (important for future pregnancy)
  • Smaller incisions and minimal scarring
  • Less pain and blood loss
  • Shorter hospital stay and faster recovery
  • Lower risk of complications compared to open surgery
  • Quick return to daily activities

  • Skilled gynecologic surgeons with expertise in complex myomectomies
  • Fertility-focused treatment planning
  • 24×7 access to anesthesia, ICU, pharmacy, and diagnostic support
  • Transparent and affordable surgery packages
  • Personalised care from pre-op to full recovery

  • Hospital stay: 1 to 2 days
  • Light activities: Resume in 5 to 7 days
  • Full recovery: 3 to 4 weeks
  • Return to work: Usually within 2 weeks
  • Avoid pregnancy for 3 to 6 months (as advised by your doctor)

Our team will guide you with recovery instructions, medications, and follow-up appointments to ensure safe healing.

Q. Can I get pregnant after a myomectomy?
Ans: Yes. Many women are able to conceive successfully after fibroid removal. Your doctor will advise when it’s safe to try.

Q. Is laparoscopic myomectomy safe for large fibroids?
Ans: Yes, depending on size and location. Our experienced surgeons will evaluate your case and recommend the safest approach.

Q. Are fibroids likely to come back?
