Clearing the Air on Cesarean Section & Myomectomy (Fibroid Removal)
Many women facing C-section also have fibroids, and the big question is.. Can my surgeon remove the fibroid at the same time?
Here’s the gist without medical jargon
Consent First… Your surgeon is not a magician pulling surprises from a hat. No consent, No fibroid removal unless your life is at stake…then, safety first.
Surgeos Sometimes Avoid removing it
because fibroids can bleed like they’re auditioning for cooking the largest African
That’s why many surgeons prefer to wait instead of turning the CS into a drama series.
But now, modern Practice with better surgical techniques, skilled hands and a trained Anesthetist, CS + Myomectomy can be done safely in carefully chosen cases
Think of it as “buy one, get one free”surgery but only if it’s safe for you.
It is not One-Size-Fits-All, It depends on…
The fibroid’s size
Its location …inside, outside, or photobombing your uterus wall and your health & recovery goals.
But the bottom line is…. having the conversation with your surgeon before surgery.
Because at the end of the day, it’s your body, your consent, your health.
