A myomectomy is a surgical procedure to remove uterine fibroids (non-cancerous growths) from the uterus, while preserving the uterus itself. It’s often performed to relieve symptoms like heavy bleeding, pelvic pain, or pressure, and can be done through various techniques, including laparoscopic (minimally invasive), abdominal, or hysteroscopic methods, depending on the size and location of the fibroids.
