Gynaecological surgery

Gynaecological surgery refers to surgical procedures used to diagnose or treat conditions affecting the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes and other parts of the female reproductive system.

Your gynaecologist will first assess your symptoms, medical history, examination findings and scans before recommending surgery. Not every condition requires an operation, and when surgery is recommended, the procedure will depend on your individual diagnosis and treatment goals.

At Iatros, particular attention is given to women who are also trying to conceive. Where medically appropriate, treatment is planned with the aim of preserving fertility and protecting healthy reproductive tissue.

What conditions can gynaecological surgery treat?

Gynaecological surgery may be recommended for conditions including:

• Uterine fibroids causing heavy bleeding, pain, pressure or other symptoms
• Ovarian cysts that require surgical assessment or treatment
• Endometriosis associated with pelvic pain or infertility
• Pelvic adhesions resulting from previous surgery, infection or other conditions
• Uterine polyps and other abnormalities within the uterine cavity
• Uterine septum and other structural abnormalities
• Certain conditions affecting the uterus, ovaries or fallopian tubes

The need for surgery depends on the specific condition, its severity, symptoms, scan findings and your individual circumstances.
