FERTILITY SURGERIES

Sometimes minor surgical procedures are the most effective way to treat infertility issues. These smaller surgeries often yield very successful outcomes.

While , just the thought of surgery may cause anxiety in some patients, be assured that there are a number of new painless surgical procedures that are being successfully performed, where the patient recovers within a day.

Egg Retrieval

One of the most common forms of surgery we perform at Anusha Women and Fertility Center is Egg Retrieval which is done as part of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) or egg freezing.

During the retrieval, a fertility specialist gently removes eggs from each follicle on the ovaries using transvaginal ultrasound guidance. The patient is under anaesthesia and the process takes 15 – 20 minutes. After a short recovery period, the patient returns home that day.

Hysteroscopy

A hysteroscope is a slim tube with a light and a camera at the end of it that is used to examine the uterine cavity. A hysteroscopy is performed with the patient under anaesthesia, to diagnose conditions such as uterine polyps, fibroids, adhesions, septum, or other conditions which may interfere with fertility or cause miscarriage.

Dilation and Curretage (D&C)

A D&C is performed under anesthesia when there is tissue in the uterus that needs to be removed. It can be used to diagnose abnormal bleeding or to treat a miscarriage if needed to remove the pregnancy tissue. This tissue is examined under a microscope for further insights into your health condition or miscarriage.

Laparoscopy

A laparoscopy is surgery performed through a small incision in the abdomen using a thin, lighted tube under general anesthesia. It can be used to confirm or treat such conditions as endometriosis, adhesions, or ovarian cysts. The process usually takes 30-90 minutes and the patient returns home same day.
