Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery for Infertility
Infertility can be an overwhelming journey, filled with uncertainty and frustration. But with laparoscopic surgery for infertility, there is hope. Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that helps identify and treat underlying causes of infertility, such as endometriosis, ovarian cysts, fibroids, and pelvic adhesions. These are some of the usual causes of infertility in a woman (the inability to conceive).
At IVF Spring Fertility Centre, we specialise in laparoscopic surgery for fertility treatments designed to diagnose and correct reproductive health issues, giving you the best chance of conception. Book a consultation today and explore how laparoscopy can improve your chances of conception.
Advantages of Laparoscopy for Infertility
Diagnoses Infertility Causes – Laparoscopy helps identify conditions that may lead to infertility in women, such as endometriosis, ovarian cysts, fibroids, and adhesions.
Enables Biopsy & Treatment – The doctor can not only examine internal organs but also perform a biopsy of affected tissue or cysts, aiding in accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
Improves Chances of Conception – By addressing specific infertility causes, laparoscopy can increase the likelihood of pregnancy, either naturally or with fertility treatments.
Detects Pelvic Adhesions – Laparoscopy can identify scar tissue (adhesions) in the pelvic region, which are not visible on x-rays, ultrasounds, or CT scans.
Enhances Fertilisation Process – Adhesions can obstruct the egg’s movement into the Fallopian tubes, making fertilisation difficult. Removing these obstructions improves the chances of conception.
Reduces Pelvic Pain – The procedure is also effective in relieving pelvic pain caused by fibroids, scar tissue, or endometrial deposits.
Infertility and laparoscopy – Who are the candidates?
Laparoscopy can be recommended as a diagnostic or corrective procedure for those couples that have already had some basic evaluations for infertility such as semen analysis for men, and ovulation assessment, egg reserve, hysterosalpingogram (HSG), and ultrasound in the case of women.
At this stage, some couples may decide to forgo laparoscopy in favour of other fertility treatments such as IVF, IUI or superovulation using certain fertility medications. In some cases, such as those patients who have had very bad pelvic infections or others who have had a ruptured appendix, the doctor may recommend laparoscopy as there are higher chances of finding pelvic adhesions.
Procedure for Laparoscopy Surgery
At IVF Spring Fertility Centre, we follow a meticulous and patient-centric approach to laparoscopic surgery for infertility, ensuring precision at every step.
Pre-surgery Preparation – The abdomen is cleansed and prepped, and an instrument is placed in the uterus through the vagina.
Gas Insufflation – Carbon dioxide or nitrous oxide is introduced to separate the pelvic organs and allow clear visibility.
Insertion of Laparoscope – A thin camera-equipped instrument is inserted through a small incision near the belly button.
Second Incision for Additional Probe – Another tiny incision allows a probe to move the organs for better examination.
Detailed Inspection – The uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes are carefully examined for conditions like adhesions, fibroids, and endometriosis.
Corrective Surgery (if required) – If abnormalities are found, they may be treated immediately, or a biopsy may be taken for further analysis.
Dye Test for Tube Patency – A methylene blue dye is injected into the uterus to check if the fallopian tubes are open for fertilisation.
Closure of Incisions – Once the procedure is complete, the instruments are removed, and the small incisions are closed with stitches or Band-Aids.
Laparoscopy Surgery: Precautions
The patient should not eat or drink anything for a few hours before the surgical procedure. Tests that are performed before the surgery include safety for the anesthesia. Most young and healthy women need not undergo many of these tests. An HSG may also be done before the surgery. The laparoscopy surgery is done on an outpatient basis. The patient is administered general anesthesia so that no discomfort is felt during the procedure.
