Submucous fibroids are benign (non-cancerous) growths that develop just below the inner lining of the uterus (endometrium). Despite their benign nature, even small submucous fibroids can distort the uterine cavity, leading to severe cramps, abnormally heavy menstrual flow, anemia, and significant reproductive challenges such as infertility and recurrent miscarriage.
Hysteroscopic myomectomy is the standard uterus-preserving surgical treatment. Using a thin hysteroscope passed through the cervix, our fertility surgeons directly visualize the fibroid and shave it away using specialized mechanical or electrosurgical instruments. Because the procedure is performed entirely through the natural birth canal, there are no cuts on your abdomen, allowing for rapid recovery and preserving uterine strength for future pregnancies.
