Before opting for a hysterectomy, several less invasive alternatives can be considered:
1. Myomectomy: This surgical procedure removes fibroids while leaving the uterus intact. 2. Endometrial Ablation: This procedure destroys the lining of the uterus to reduce bleeding. 3. Uterine Artery Embolization: This minimally invasive procedure reduces fibroid size by cutting off their blood supply. 4. Hormonal Therapies: Medications can help manage symptoms by regulating hormones. 5. Laparoscopic Surgery: Minimally invasive surgery can address conditions like endometriosis without removing the uterus.
