What to Ask and Tell the Doctor?
What to Expect Before Surgery?
Fibroid size
The number of fibroids
The experience of the surgeon
The position of fibroids in the uterus
6)Before the surgery, your surgeon will ask for several diagnostic tests to determine the fibroids’ size, location, and number. These tests include:
7)Physical test: The gynaecologist can feel the fibroids during a regular pelvic exam. Other tests need to be done to confirm and determine the exact location.
8)Ultrasonography: This procedure creates a picture of your internal organs using sound waves. Depending on the uterus size, the ultrasound is carried out via transvaginal (through the vagina) or transabdominal (through the abdomen) approach.
9)Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): This procedure uses magnets and radio waves to create detailed images of your internal organs.
10)Computed tomography (CT): X-ray images are taken through a CT scan through various angles.
11)Hysteroscopy: A hysteroscopy uses a device called a scope to look at fibroids inside the uterus. This device has a thin, long tube with a tiny camera attached to it. A scope passes through your vagina and cervix and then moves into your uterus to take pictures.
12)Hysterosalpingography (HSG): A contrast material is initially injected inside the uterus, and then detailed X-rays of the uterus are taken.
13)Sonohysterography: This procedure provides more precise images than a standard ultrasound. This is an imaging test, and a catheter is placed transvaginally. Saline is inserted through that catheter. The extra fluid from the saline helps to create a clearer image.[4]
14)Blood tests: Blood tests are done to check for any anaemic condition and rule out any kidney infection.
