Patient's question:
If the fibroid size is around 5 cm, is it better to have a hysterectomy surgery using traditional surgery or laparoscopic surgery? What are the costs for each type of surgery? How is the laparoscopic surgery performed?Doctor's answer:
Generally, when performing a total hysterectomy for uterine fibroids, it is best to use traditional open surgery. If the procedure involves only fibroid removal while preserving the uterus, laparoscopic surgery causes less trauma. In your case, even with open surgery, it is not a major operation and can typically be completed within an hour. Postoperative recovery is also relatively quick, and you can return to normal very soon.Lifestyle care: Maintain a positive mood and avoid rushing. This condition is very treatable.
