Surgery in gynecology is necessary when non-surgical treatments are insufficient or inappropriate. Common conditions that may require surgical intervention include:
Fibroids: Non-cancerous growths in the uterus that can cause heavy bleeding, pain, and other symptoms. Endometriosis: A condition where tissue similar to the lining inside the uterus grows outside it, causing pain and potentially affecting fertility. Ovarian cysts: Fluid-filled sacs in the ovary that can cause pain and other complications. Pelvic organ prolapse: When pelvic organs drop from their normal position due to weakening of the muscles and tissues supporting them. Cancer: Surgery is often a critical component of treatment for gynecological cancers such as ovarian, uterine, and cervical cancer.
