Fibroids and ovarian cysts are common gynecological conditions that can affect women’s reproductive health, leading to pelvic pain, irregular bleeding, and fertility concerns. While fibroids are non-cancerous growths in the uterus, ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs that develop on or inside the ovaries.
At DYU Obstetrics and Gynaecology, we offer comprehensive diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment plans to manage fibroids and ovarian cysts effectively, ensuring optimal health and symptom relief.
Symptoms of Fibroids & Ovarian Cysts
1. Symptoms of Uterine Fibroids
- Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
- Pelvic pain and pressure
- Frequent urination or difficulty emptying the bladder
- Pain during intercourse
- Constipation and bloating
- Reproductive issues, including infertility or pregnancy complications
2. Symptoms of Ovarian Cysts
- Pelvic pain or pressure (especially on one side)
- Irregular menstrual cycles or spotting
- Bloating or abdominal discomfort
- Pain during intercourse
- Difficulty conceiving in some cases
- Ruptured cysts may cause sudden, severe pain
Diagnostic Approach
To accurately diagnose fibroids and ovarian cysts, we use:
- Pelvic ultrasound (Transvaginal & Abdominal) for size and location assessment
- MRI for detailed imaging of fibroid and ovarian structures
- Hormonal tests to rule out underlying endocrine disorders
- Laparoscopy for direct visualization and surgical evaluation (if necessary)
Treatment Options
Our personalized treatment approach is based on severity, symptoms, and fertility considerations.
1. Medications for Symptom Management
- Hormonal therapy (Birth control pills, GnRH agonists, progestins) to regulate menstrual cycles and shrink fibroids.
- Pain relievers & anti-inflammatory medications to reduce pelvic pain and cramping.
2. Minimally Invasive Procedures
- Laparoscopic Myomectomy – Removes fibroids while preserving the uterus.
- Hysteroscopic Resection – Used for small fibroids inside the uterus.
- Ovarian Cystectomy (Cyst Removal Surgery) – Laparoscopic procedure for persistent ovarian cysts.
- Endometrial Ablation – Helps manage heavy bleeding caused by fibroids.
3. Advanced Surgical Treatments
- Hysterectomy (Uterus Removal Surgery) – Recommended in severe cases where fertility is not a concern.
- Laparoscopic Oophorectomy – Removal of cyst-affected ovaries in severe cases.
- Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) – A non-surgical procedure that shrinks fibroids by cutting off their blood supply.
4. Fertility-Preserving Approaches
- Monitoring small, asymptomatic fibroids or cysts with regular check-ups.
- Personalized fertility treatments for women with reproductive concerns.
