Uterine Fibroids Treatment in Jaipur – Advanced Surgery at Cocoon Hospital

Uterine fibroids (UFs) are the most common gynecological condition. UFs are also called leiomyomas, which are non-cancerous (benign) growths made of muscle and tissue formed in or on the wall of your uterus.

They can technically develop at various points in a woman's life; they are primarily associated with the reproductive years (puberty to menopause), with the highest incidence occurring in 60% of women in their 30s, 40s, and early 50s. Sometimes, a person has no symptoms and is unaware they have fibroids.

Not all UFs need treatment; in some cases they shrink or resolve on their own, particularly after menopause when decreased hormone levels cause them to reduce in size. Also, small UFs may not need treatment if they aren’t causing any symptoms. However, larger fibroids and submucosal fibroids (inside the uterine cavity), if affecting your daily life, may require treatment.

If you are experiencing constant symptoms or need expert evaluation, consult a trusted Fibroid treatment center in Jaipur for an accurate diagnosis and personalized care.

Cocoon Hospital offers advanced technology like minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery, radiofrequency ablation (RFA), and uterine fibroid embolization, backed by high‑end imaging and 20+ years of experienced gynecologists and obstetricians. This helps ensure shorter hospital stays and quicker returns to daily activities.

What Are Uterine Fibroids?

They are non‑cancerous growths that develop in or around the womb made of muscle and fibrous tissue. They can vary greatly in size, from as small as a pea to as large as a grapefruit.

Here are their main types:

Submucosal: inside the uterine cavity
Intramural: within the uterine wall
Subserosal: on the outer surface of the uterus
Pedunculated: attached by a stalk

Signs That Indicate the Need for Uterine Fibroid Treatment

Not every fibroid shows symptoms and requires treatment. However, doctors in Jaipur usually recommend intervention when any of these signs interfere with daily activities, work, sleep, or emotional well‑being.

Your gynecologist will discuss medical or procedural treatment options based on your symptoms and personal preference.

Symptom	Specific Sign or Pattern	Why It May Need Treatment
Heavy or prolonged periods	Periods lasting more than 7 days, soaking pads/tampons every 1–2 hours, passing large clots.	Can cause anemia, fatigue, and significantly affect daily activities.
Heavy or prolonged periods	Diagnosed iron-deficiency anemia linked to heavy bleeding.	Indicates substantial blood loss requiring medical or procedural intervention.
Pain and pelvic pressure	Persistent pelvic pain, cramping, heaviness, or lower abdominal/back pressure.	Suggests large or multiple fibroids compressing adjacent structures.
Pain and pelvic pressure	Pain during intercourse or sudden severe pelvic pain.	May indicate degenerating or torsed fibroid requiring urgent evaluation.
Bladder and bowel problems	Frequent urination or incomplete bladder emptying.	Suggests fibroid compression of the urinary tract.
Bladder and bowel problems	Constipation or difficulty with bowel movements.	Often due to fibroid pressure on the rectum.
Bleeding outside the period	Spotting or intermenstrual bleeding.	May be associated with fibroids and warrants clinical assessment.
Bleeding outside the period	Any vaginal bleeding after menopause.	Always requires investigation; fibroids are one possible cause.
Fertility and pregnancy issues	Difficulty conceiving or recurrent miscarriages.	Submucosal or cavity-distorting fibroids may impair implantation or pregnancy maintenance.
Abdominal swelling	Noticeable abdominal enlargement without weight gain or rapidly enlarging uterus on exam.	Suggests growing fibroids needing imaging and treatment planning.
Abdominal swelling	Uncertain pelvic mass not confidently identified as fibroid.	Requires further evaluation (imaging, biopsy, or surgery) to exclude other pathology.

If you experience any of these symptoms, consulting a fibroid doctor in Jaipur at an early stage can prevent complications.

Diagnosis of Fibroids in Jaipur

At Cocoon Hospital, diagnosis is usually made through a combination of history, physical exam, and imaging tests.

Step / Test	What It Is	What It Shows
History and Examination	The doctor evaluates symptoms and performs a physical pelvic examination.	Suggests the presence of fibroids and assesses their severity.
Ultrasound	Imaging scan performed through the abdomen (transabdominal) or vagina (transvaginal).	Shows the size, number, and location of fibroids.
Saline Sonography	Saline (salt water) is instilled into the uterus during ultrasound imaging.	Provides better visualization of fibroids within the uterine cavity.
MRI	Detailed cross-sectional imaging scan of the pelvis.	Provides precise mapping of fibroids, especially before surgery or embolization.
Hysteroscopy	A thin scope inserted through the cervix into the uterus.	Directly visualizes and can remove fibroids located inside the uterine cavity.
Laparoscopy	A camera inserted through small abdominal incisions.	Visualizes the outer surface of the uterus and allows treatment of fibroids.
Blood Tests	Laboratory blood examination.	Detects anemia due to heavy menstrual bleeding.

Early diagnosis helps in choosing the most effective Uterine fibroids treatment plan.

Fibroids Treatment Options in Jaipur

Treatment depends on your symptoms, the size, number, and location of fibroids, the age of the patient, and future pregnancy plans.

Experts at Cocoon Hospital may offer treatment tailored based on whether fibroids are symptomatic (causing problems) or non‑symptomatic (no or very mild symptoms).

Non-Surgical and Medical Management

These provide relief from symptoms:

Medications: Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists and antagonists (e.g., Lupron) shrink fibroids by decreasing levels of estrogen. When estrogen levels are too high, it can lead to fibroid development and growth.
Contraceptives: Progestin-releasing IUDs and birth control pills help manage heavy bleeding.
Pain Relief: NSAIDs such as ibuprofen or naproxen are used for the management of pain.

Minimally Invasive Procedures

These interventions reduce symptoms like heavy bleeding and pain while preserving the uterus (womb).

Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE): Cut off blood flow to shrink the fibroids.
Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA): Uses heat to destroy fibroid tissue.
MRI-Guided Focused Ultrasound (MRgFUS): Uses sound waves to destroy fibroids.

Surgical Treatments

Myomectomy: Surgical removal of fibroids while leaving the uterus intact. It can be ideal for preserving fertility.

It is done through the following approaches:

Myomectomy Approach	How It Is Done	Best For
Hysteroscopic Myomectomy	A thin scope is passed through the vagina and cervix into the uterus (no abdominal cuts).	Submucosal fibroids (inside the uterine cavity) causing heavy bleeding or infertility.
Laparoscopic Myomectomy	Performed through small abdominal incisions (keyhole surgery) using a camera and instruments.	Women desiring uterus preservation with faster recovery and less postoperative pain.
Robotic Myomectomy	Similar to laparoscopy but uses robot-assisted arms for enhanced precision and control.	Complex or multiple fibroids in centers with advanced surgical setup.
Open (Abdominal) Myomectomy	A single larger incision is made in the lower abdomen.	Very large, multiple, or deeply embedded fibroids.
Vaginal Myomectomy	Access through the vagina and cervix without abdominal incisions.	Selected fibroids near the cervix or lower uterus when anatomy is suitable.

Hysterectomy:Removal of the uterus, which is the only definitive, permanent cure for fibroids. Board-certified obstetrician-gynecologist (Ob/Gyn) at Cocoon Hospital may recommend it for women with large, multiple, or recurrent fibroids who do not wish to have children in the future.

FAQs

Is Fibroid Surgery safe ?

Fibroid removal surgery (myomectomy) is generally considered very safe and effective when under professional guidance.

Can Fibroids come back after Surgery ?

Yes, fibroids can come back after surgery, especially after a myomectomy, which removes the fibroids but keeps the uterus intact.

Will Fibroid Surgery affect Fertility ?

Yes, it can affect fertility, but the effect depends on which type of surgery you have, where the fibroids were, and how the uterus heals. Hysterectomy permanently ends fertility, and myomectomy and uterine artery embolization (UAE/UFE) preserve the uterus; hence, you can get pregnant afterward.

How long does Fibroid Surgery take ?

The time depends on the type of procedure and how many fibroids there are. It can typically take up upto 30 minutes to 3 hours.

Do all Fibroids need Surgery ?

No, not all uterine fibroids require surgery; treatment is generally only needed if they cause significant symptoms like heavy bleeding, pain, or infertility.
