Myomectomy in Daegu

Daegu Y LADY Women's Clinic

Safe and Personalized Removal of Uterine Fibroids

Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths that may cause heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pressure, pain, or fertility concerns depending on their size and location. At Daegu Y LADY Women’s Clinic, we provide myomectomy, a surgical procedure designed to remove uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus whenever appropriate.

Our gynecological team provides personalized evaluation and treatment based on each patient’s fibroid size, location, symptoms, and reproductive goals, helping manage fibroid-related concerns while supporting uterine and reproductive health.

International patients seeking gynecological care in Daegu, Korea are welcome.

What Is Myomectomy?

Myomectomy is a surgical procedure that removes uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus. Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths that develop in or around the muscular wall of the uterus and can cause heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pressure, pain, or reproductive concerns.

Myomectomy may be considered when fibroids are causing significant symptoms, affecting fertility, or increasing in size or number. The surgical approach depends on the location, size, and number of fibroids as well as the patient's symptoms and reproductive plans.

At Daegu Y LADY Women’s Clinic, each patient receives an individualized gynecological evaluation to assess the fibroids and determine whether myomectomy or another treatment approach is appropriate.

Common Reasons for Myomectomy

Patients may be considered for myomectomy when fibroids are associated with:

  • Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
  • Pelvic pressure or fullness
  • Lower abdominal or pelvic pain
  • Painful menstruation
  • Frequent urination caused by pressure on the bladder
  • Constipation or bowel pressure from larger fibroids
  • Enlarging fibroids
  • Fibroids that may interfere with fertility or pregnancy
  • Persistent symptoms that do not improve with conservative treatment

Ultrasound and other appropriate imaging or examinations may be used to evaluate the size, location, and characteristics of the fibroids before treatment.

What to Expect During Myomectomy

The surgical technique is selected according to the characteristics of the fibroids and the patient's individual circumstances. Common approaches include hysteroscopic, laparoscopic, and abdominal myomectomy.

The procedure may involve:

  • Preoperative evaluation: The number, size, and location of fibroids are assessed along with the patient's symptoms and reproductive plans.
  • Surgical approach selection: The least invasive suitable approach is considered based on the fibroid's location and complexity.
  • Fibroid removal: The fibroids are carefully separated from the surrounding uterine tissue and removed.
  • Uterine repair: When necessary, the uterine tissue is repaired to support healing and preserve the uterus.
  • Postoperative monitoring: Follow-up care is provided to assess recovery and address any postoperative concerns.

The appropriate technique varies considerably between patients. Not every fibroid requires surgical removal, and alternative treatments may be discussed when appropriate.

Recovery After Myomectomy

Recovery depends on the surgical approach, number and size of fibroids removed, and individual healing. Minimally invasive procedures generally have shorter recovery periods than abdominal surgery, although all surgical approaches require appropriate healing time.

Patients may experience temporary abdominal or pelvic discomfort, fatigue, light vaginal bleeding, or swelling following surgery.

Patients may be advised to:

  • Take prescribed medications as directed
  • Keep surgical wounds clean and follow postoperative instructions
  • Avoid strenuous exercise and heavy lifting until medically cleared
  • Allow sufficient time for the uterus and surrounding tissues to heal
  • Follow individualized guidance regarding sexual intercourse
  • Attend recommended follow-up appointments

Patients planning a future pregnancy should discuss the appropriate recovery period and pregnancy timing with their gynecologist, as recommendations can vary according to the type and depth of uterine repair.
