FAQ about Uterine fibroids Treatment in Thailand

Diagnosis of uterine fibroids in foreign clinics

Diagnostic Name	Why is it carried out?
Gynecological examination	The doctor collects an anamnesis of the disease, probes the tumor and directs the patient for tests and examinations.
Ultrasound / intravaginal ultrasound	Used to determine the location of fibroids and identify the smallest neoplasms and nodules.
Diagnostic hysteroscopy/colposcopy are methods of examining the uterus using an optical system.	They allow the doctor to see the condition of the uterus and choose a method for removing fibroids.
Biopsy (tissue sampling) with histological analysis	The procedure is performed during a colposcopy. With a special device, the doctor takes a sample of fibroid tissue and gives it for examination under a microscope. Histological analysis reveals cancer cells, inflammatory processes in the genitourinary system and causes of infertility.

New methods of treatment of fibroids in clinics abroad

Methods of treatment of fibroids are divided into non-surgical and surgical. The latter include myomectomy (removal of fibroids) and hysterectomy (removal of the uterus). The advantage of surgical removal of fibroids is that the possibility of recurrence is minimal, with a hysterectomy it is completely absent.

The disadvantages of these methods are scars, postoperative complications, blood loss, hormonal failure. Modern surgery for uterine fibroids allows you to reduce all these risks to a minimum. That is why specialists of foreign clinics prefer minimally invasive techniques. These include laparoscopy (surgery through punctures in the peritoneum) and hysteroscopy (surgery through the vagina).

Non-surgical treatments for uterine fibroids

Embolization of the uterine arteries. Small balloons (emboli) are inserted through the catheter into the femoral artery. They clog the vessels that feed the fibroid, and it shrinks to a normal state.

FUS-ablation. The procedure consists in heating the fibroids under MRI control, after which the neoplasm is destroyed.
