What Is Reproductive Surgery?
Reproductive Surgery encompasses surgical procedures aimed at diagnosing and treating reproductive health issues in both men and women. It may involve addressing conditions such as endometriosis, fibroids, ovarian cysts, tubal blockages, or male infertility factors like varicoceles. The goal of reproductive surgery is to improve fertility outcomes, either as a standalone treatment or in conjunction with assisted reproductive technologies (ART) such as in vitro fertilization (IVF). Surgical techniques range from laparoscopic or robotic surgeries for women to procedures like varicocelectomy for men, tailored to specific reproductive challenges.
The decision to undergo reproductive surgery is typically made after thorough diagnostic testing and consultation with a fertility specialist. It aims to correct anatomical abnormalities, remove obstructions, or optimize reproductive organs' function to enhance the chances of natural conception or improve outcomes in ART procedures.
