Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths that develop in or around the uterus, affecting many women, particularly during their reproductive years. Dr. Jasmin Reza Susarla, a leading gynecologist, laparoscopic surgeon, and infertility specialist in Kolkata, provides expert insights into the causes, symptoms, and treatment of uterine fibroids.
While fibroids are often asymptomatic, they can cause a range of symptoms including heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, frequent urination, and complications during pregnancy. Dr. Susarla emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis to manage symptoms effectively and prevent potential complications such as infertility.
Diagnosis typically involves pelvic examinations, ultrasounds, or MRI scans to determine the size, number, and location of the fibroids. Dr. Susarla is highly skilled in laparoscopic gynecologic surgery, offering minimally invasive procedures that allow for quicker recovery and less post-operative pain.
Treatment options depend on the severity of the symptoms and the patient’s fertility plans. These may include medication, non-surgical procedures like uterine artery embolization, or surgical options such as myomectomy or hysterectomy. Dr. Susarla’s personalized approach ensures that each patient receives the most appropriate and effective care.
For women struggling with fibroids, consulting with an experienced specialist like Dr. Jasmin Reza Susarla can make a significant difference in their quality of life and reproductive health. If you suspect you have fibroids, seek expert care to explore your treatment options.
