Uterine Cancer Drugs Market is Expected to Gain Popularity Across the Globe by 2028
Tumblr media
Uterine cancer is one of the most common gynecologic malignancy among female cancer patients. This uterine cancer is of two types: endometrial cancer and uterine sarcoma. Endometrial cancer is caused due to uncontrolled growth of inner linings of uterus. Endometrial cancer is often curable, however, uterine sarcoma is rare cancer, which develops in the muscle and supporting tissues of the uterus (womb). According to National Cancer Institute, Megestrol Acetate is only drug approved by U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of endometrial cancer till March 2016. Diagnosis of both types of uterine cancer is done through endometrial biopsy, colposcopy or Pap smear screening test.
Uterine Cancer Drugs Market Drivers
Increasing funding for cancer research, rising insurance coverage, and increasing number of new targeted cancer drugs are supporting the revenue growth of uterine cancer drugs market size. For instance, National Cancer Institute, in 2015, invested around US$ 4,480 million on cancer research, which include uterine cancer, cervical cancer, lung cancer, colorectal cancer, liver cancer, breast cancer, leukemia, and ovarian cancer. Furthermore, according to the American Cancer Society, U.S. has spent around US$ 87.8 billion in 2014, on cancer research, in which the major cost accounting for around 44%, was paid by private insurance companies.
Uterine Cancer Drugs Market - Regional Analysis
Geographically, uterine cancer drugs market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Middle East, Asia Pacific, and Africa. According to World Health Organization (WHO) 2018 data findings, cervical cancer is the fourth most frequent type of cancer in women, which accounted for an estimated 530,000 new cases in 2012, representing 7.9% of all female cancers. Furthermore, according to WHO: 2018, around 90% the 270,000 deaths from cervical cancer in 2015 are occurred in low- and middle-income countries. Furthermore, the prevalence of endometrial cancer is higher in developed economics such as the in North America and the Europe, owing to changing lifestyles of women in these countries. The prevalence of uterine cancer is more common in women aged 50 years and above.

I talked to my surgeon about how triggering an internal scan would be and we decided to go external only. Not that it mattered because they didn't have any appointments available until after my surgery and so we didn't have an ultrasound done at all. (I'm assuming that the ultrasound is related to hysterectomy prep, disregard this message if I'm wrong.)
It is but the problem is that my mother was a DES* baby and had a positive pap plus a rather large benign ovary tumor and my sister had andemiosis (like endometriosis but in the muscle) AND a maternal first cousin straight up had uterine cancer so even if the doctor was willing I actually kind of need to be screened for you know. surprises. So even if I could get away with not doing the internal one it's wiser to drug myself up and get through it 😭 trauma is bad! Cancer is worse!!!!!
right now my amygdala is throwing a rager but I know it'll be much less stressful when it's done. But you bet I'll be drugged to the gills.
*artificial estrogen used because they thought it made pregnancies stable and uhhhhhh surprise! It did not. Also it's a cross placental mutagen and it's high key a medical miracle that my mother ever had kids let alone carried Amy and I to term. Look it up, it's like three parts fascinating and ten parts horrifying

Heyyy You explain these things in ways I can actually understand is it insensitive to ask about the blocker ban? And I hope you haven't been affected by any of it and that you are okay 💖💖💖
HI !! i'm gonna be so honest and say that my initial response was going to be that i can't. and,,, i can't really.
but the corner feels really empty at the moment. which,,, i know it's not. but it's really fucking lonely both in and out of this space to be trans right now so i'm gonna make this corner mine 🙂↕️ let's talk about it.
to preface - it's so much deeper than everything below. it's,,, i haven't been hurt by the ban of puberty blockers but since they've made it indefinite, i've been taken off of all care. from my seizures to my mental health to even just "if i broke my leg right now, where the fuck do i go???". which,,, fucking sucks init. i thought maybe it was just a Me thing and i'd gotten unlucky with my gp, but all bar one of my trans friends have been taken off of everything. so,,, not directly no. but this isn't just an attack on Trans Healthcare, this is an attack on trans people receiving any healthcare. oh and they changed my name back to my deadname on the database without telling me. so that's. something.
yeah. it fucking sucks. eloquent, i know but idk. no words for it really and you've sent this at 4am which is prime crying time so 🫂🫂 thank you for checking in 🫂🫂
but now that the sob session is over, onto the important things:
THE BASICS:
puberty blockers: used to postpone puberty, once taken off of these puberty proceeds as normal.
these are not predominately a form of trans healthcare and can be used for: early onset puberty (affects v roughly 1 in 5-10,000), endometriosis (growth of uterine lining, incredibly painful condition), some forms of cancer - and some other things but these are the most common uses
these have been used commonly since the 80s to treat such things with no question in regards to their safety (because, spoiler alert: this isn't actually about the safety of them, it's about transphobia)
the ban only applies to gender dysphoria cases: note here, at the time of the original ban only 83 cases of this were being prescribed. more cis people were on them than trans people.
to clarify, in case it wasn't clear how blatant the transphobia is: puberty blockers do not function differently on trans people. healthcare does not discriminate, the system does.
TIMELINE:
MARCH 2024: nhs england decides that blockers will no longer be routine treatment for gender dysphoria
APRIL 2024: final cass report released -> more below but this was a review into gender identity services for under-18s, written by someone who hates trans people,,, i'm sure that won't be biased at all ! /s
MAY 2024: previous tory government tightens this and introduces an "emergent temporary ban" (those already on the drug are allowed to continue)
JULY 2024: labour gov comes into power and keep it in place. law is challenged in the high court, government wins.
AUGUST 2024: "temporary" ban extended again
NOW: wes streeting (health secretary) has made this indefinite with a review in 2027.
EXTRA DETAILS:
this comes from "expert advice" including the Cass Report. i'll link a review by Stonewall Scotland here but the general synopsis is that this is written by a terf who did not communicate with trans individuals, has no fucking clue what actually happens, and is completely fucking wrong about everything. government (both previous and current) approve this review 😄👍🏼 -PSSTTT so does jkr, she said she felt "vindicated" by this)
there are planned clinical trials by the nhs into the use of puberty blockers (will these happen? who knows! will they be fair? absolutely not, the nhs started this and have been cutting their trans services for fucking ages)
backed by Sex Matters (incrediblyyy transphobic organisation and PSSSTTTT jkr is connected to them! anyway :3 here's a quote from them -> "It marks another step towards puberty blockers being relegated to a shameful chapter of history, in which parents and health professionals were emotionally blackmailed into harming children in the name of 'progress'."
this here is a response from Trans Actual -> note, this is from the august extension, i'm unsure if they've responded to the indefinite ban yet.
there's most definitely more but i've spent too long looking at my google doc. i hope this helped explain it a little !!
it's all incredibly baseless with no evidence of the harm these "cause", but plenty of evidence on the harm the ban causes. it's blatant transphobia no matter how much they phrase it as "protecting kids"

Status Report and Mail Order Notification
Good evening brothers and sisters abroad. After the rush of events, I am finally getting settled. Today, I'd like to give you an update on my recent activities and announce the mail order of my original drawings and new publications.
The rush of events started on September 15. It all started with my best friend from high school and I going to LUPICIA, a famous Japanese tea company, to get some tea cakes for the upcoming events.
On 9/23, I exhibited at a joint Touhou event in Kyoto to display and distribute my new book and original artwork, and on 9/30, I was asked to be a second for my master's powerlifting competition, so I was engaged in seconding.
After that, I participated in Kouroumu, a Touhou event held in Osaka, where I exhibited and distributed my original artwork. I have now been working at the event for 4 weeks in a row.
And now that things have finally settled down, we have registered our new publications and original artwork on our mail order site! We have also registered them with the proxy purchase service in Booth's system so that they can be purchased by people overseas. We will charge a small fee for this service, but it will be available to anyone overseas. Of course they will be framed 💕.
In fact, we also have new postcard-sized original drawings of Eastern characters that we have not yet posted here on our website.
And here is a request for the future. My circle currently consists mainly of Touhou character illustrations, but I have started to work on original illustrations as well. And now I am raising funds for my hospitalization and surgery to remove my uterine cancer.
The date for the surgery itself has already been set, and after I finish a national powerlifting competition next month, I will be hospitalized for a little less than two weeks from November 20 to observe the surgery and post-operative condition.
Currently, due to a worsening of a chronic illness that occurred the year before last, I am unable to engage in normal work, and I am still unable to engage in any work other than drawing illustrations. I am a freelance illustrator and earn almost no income. I do not have enough money to face the hospitalization and surgery next month.
So I would like to ask my overseas followers to help me. Please spread the word about my original illustrations to people who are not just Touhou lovers. And if you think it is a wonderful work of art, whether you like the character or not, please welcome the original.
If as many people as possible welcome my original drawings and new publications, it will help to pay for my uterine cancer surgery and subsequent hospital visits.
Most importantly, it will also help fund the purchase of expensive immunosuppressive drugs for my uterine cancer and other incurable diseases.
Please, can you all help me?

"For years, Sharissa Derricott, 30, had no idea why her body seemed to be failing. At 21, a surgeon replaced her deteriorated jaw joint. She’s been diagnosed with degenerative disc disease and fibromyalgia, a chronic pain condition. Her teeth are shedding enamel and cracking.
None of it made sense to her until she discovered a community of women online who describe similar symptoms and have one thing in common: all had taken a drug called Lupron.
Thousands of parents chose to inject their daughters with the drug, which was approved to shut down puberty in young girls but also is commonly used off-label to help short kids grow taller.
The drug’s pediatric version comes with few warnings about long-term side effects. It is also used in adults to fight prostate cancer or relieve uterine pain and the Food and Drug Administration has warnings on the drug’s adult labels about a variety of side effects.
More than 10,000 adverse event reports filed with the FDA reflect the experiences of women who’ve taken Lupron. The reports describe everything from brittle bones to faulty joints.
In interviews and in online forums, women who took the drug as young girls or initiated a daughter’s treatment described harsh side effects that have been well-documented in adults.
Women who used Lupron a decade or more ago to delay puberty or grow taller described the short-term side effects listed on the pediatric label: pain at the injection site, mood swings and headaches. Yet they also described conditions that usually affect people much later in life. A 20-year-old from South Carolina was diagnosed with osteopenia, a thinning of the bones, while a 25 year-old from Pennsylvania has osteoporosis and a cracked spine. A 26 year-old in Massachusetts needed a total hip replacement. A 25-year-old in Wisconsin, like Derricott, has chronic pain and degenerative disc disease.
“It just feels like I’m being punished for basically being experimented on when I was a child,” said Derricott, of Lawton, Okla. “I’d hate for a child to be put on Lupron, get to my age and go through the things I have been through.”
Women fear drug they used to halt puberty led to health problems (PBS) graphic from woman-for-women | thinking of detransition? you are not alone

Robyn Pennacchia at Wonkette:
Last week, Louisiana lawmakers empowered child rapists by voting down a bill that would have allowed an exception in their abortion ban for their victims. This week, they’re looking into classifying abortion pills as a Schedule IV “controlled substance” so that they can harshly prosecute people for helping to distribute them to those in need. The provision was added as an amendment to SB276, a bill that “creates the crime of coerced criminal abortion by means of fraud to prohibit a third-party from knowingly using an abortion-inducing drug to cause, or attempt to cause, an abortion on an unsuspecting pregnant mother without her knowledge or consent and amends various abortion criminal laws to add the crime of attempted abortion.”
It is deeply concerning that Louisiana legislators are wholly unaware that all of this is already illegal. It is illegal, except in some emergency situations and even then only by medical professionals, to give anyone any kind of medication without their knowledge and informed consent. If they think this is legal, well, I wouldn’t leave my drink around a single one of them, is all I’m saying. It’s also clear that they don’t really understand what controlled substances are, why some drugs are scheduled and others are not, nor anything about the specific drugs they are trying to control. Misoprostol, for instance, is primarily used to prevent ulcers from NSAIDs, as well as to help stop postpartum hemorrhaging after a miscarriage. Mifepristone is sometimes used during labor, during IUD placement, during cancer biopsies, for Cushing’s syndrome and uterine fibroids.
[...] The bill’s sponsor, Republican state Sen. Thomas Pressly, introduced it partially for personal reasons, because his sister’s ex-husband actually did secretly dose her with an abortion drug, and was not, in Pressly and his sister’s estimation, punished severely enough for it. He served 180 days in jail, and the bill would raise that to 10 years and up to $75,000 in fines. It would be one thing to increase the penalties for dosing anyone in any kind of way, but there’s a reason they’re specifying abortion drugs. What they want is to prevent people from getting them for women who want to take them voluntarily but cannot because of their state’s gross law, and to institute major penalties for this. What they want is to be able to better track doctors who may still be prescribing these pills to abortion-seeking patients for reasons other than abortion.
Louisiana's SB276 bill to classify abortion pills such as mifepristone and misoprostol as "controlled substances" are an attack on reproductive freedom and family planning.

“In the early 1990s an "adventurous pediatric endocrinologist" in Amsterdam halted the puberty of a thirteen-year-old girl known as "B" by administering to her an off-label drug known as a gonad-otrophin-releasing hormone agonist, or GnRHa.(5) When administered to a child, it pauses the development of his or her secondary sex characteristics. For a girl, this means she will not experience normal breast development, menstruation, or typical fat distribution. A boy, meanwhile, will have lower muscle mass, less facial hair, decreased height, and his voice will not deepen.
At the time B received GnRHa, it was only used to chemically castrate male sex offenders and to treat prostate cancer. It has also been used to treat uterine fibroids and endometriosis in women-but for no longer than six months. Doctors also sometimes prescribed it to treat the rare condition of precocious puberty in children (when puberty begins before age eight in girls and before age nine in boys). However, such drugs were never approved for treating gender dysphoric children who were otherwise progressing naturally through puberty. After all, puberty is not a disease. In fact, the absence of puberty is a disease, known as Kallmann syndrome. When puberty blockers are given to healthy children, physicians are using drugs to induce a diseased state in the patient.”

Radiation Therapy Explained: Benefits, Process, and Potential Side Effects
Tumblr media
Radiation therapy is a type of cancer treatment that uses high doses of radiation to kill cancer cells and shrink tumours. Radiation therapy works by damaging the DNA of cancer cells, which prevents them from dividing or growing. Radiation therapy can be delivered externally or internally, depending on the type and location of the cancer.
Radiotherapy is a rapidly growing technically advancing speciality.
The most advanced radiotherapy techniques include:
ETHOS, Linear Accelerators with Artificial Intelligence.
MR Linear Accelerators, where a MR imaging machine is used as part of treatment for better imaging and treatment position and precision.
Cyberknife:  A miniature linear accelerator mounted on a robotic arm, used for high precision radiotherapies to like brain tumors and recurrent tumors close to critical organs.  Cyberknife is used even in noncancerous brain tumors like schwannommas and trigeminal nerve roots alleviating the pain and suffering of trigeminal neuralgia.
Proton Beam Therapy.
3D conformal radiation therapy.
Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT)
Volumetric modulated radiation therapy (VMAT)
Image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT)
Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS)
Brachytherapy.
Superficial x-ray radiation therapy (SXRT)
Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT)
Benefits of Radiation Therapy
For many common cancers, such as breast cancer, bowel cancer, uterine cancer, skin cancers and prostate cancer, radiation therapy is highly effective in reducing the risk of cancer recurrence if delivered either before or after surgery. In some cancers (for example (prostate, head and neck, bladder, lung, cervix and skin cancers), radiation therapy, with or without drug therapy, can be used as the main curative treatment and in this way avoids the risks of surgery and the removal of organs.
For some cancers that are too advanced to be cured, radiation therapy is very effective for pain and other problems caused by cancer, such as bleeding from the lung or bladder. For example, pain in the bones from the spread of cancer can be improved significantly or be completely removed in around 75% of patients.
New technological advances in radiation therapy have made life better for cancer patients in recent years by making treatments even quicker, more accurate and effective.
Radiation therapy can help:
●      Cure cancer by destroying all the cancer cells in a tumour.
●      Control cancer by slowing down its growth or preventing it from spreading to other parts of the body.
●      Relieve symptoms such as pain, bleeding, or pressure caused by a tumour.
Process of Radiation Therapy
The process of radiation therapy varies depending on the type and stage of the cancer, the goals of the treatment, and the patient’s overall health and preferences. Generally, the process involves:
Radiation therapy is a type of cancer treatment that uses high energy beams to destroy cancer cells and shrink tumours.
The American Cancer Society notes that more than half of people with cancer receive radiation therapy.
Radiation damages genetic material called DNA inside of cancer cells. If the cancer cell cannot repair the DNA, the cell will not be able to produce new cells and may die.
The radiation may injure noncancerous cells, but most are able to recover.
A person’s treatment team will carefully plan radiation therapy to minimise damage to normal tissues and organs.
●  A consultation with a radiation oncologist, who is a doctor who specialises in treating cancer with radiation.
● A planning session is where a radiation therapist will keep the patient  immobilised in position with thermoplastic masks, then imaging tests such as CT scans or MRI scans are used to map out the exact location and size of the tumour and the surrounding normal tissues.
●  A simulation session, where a radiation therapist will position the patient on a table and mark the skin with ink or tattoos to guide the delivery of the radiation beams.
● A treatment session, where the patient will lie still on a table while a machine called a linear accelerator will deliver the radiation beams to the tumour from different angles. The treatment session may last from a few minutes to an hour, depending on the dose and type of radiation therapy. The patient may need to have several treatment sessions over days, weeks, or months.
Potential Side Effects of Radiation Therapy
Radiation therapy can cause side effects that vary depending on the part of the body being treated, the dose and type of radiation therapy, and the patient’s individual response. Some common side effects include:
●      Skin changes such as redness, dryness, itching, peeling, or blistering.
●      Fatigue or tiredness that may interfere with daily activities.
●      Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or constipation that may affect appetite and    digestion.
●      Hair loss in the area being treated.
●      Mouth sores or dry mouth that may make eating or swallowing difficult.
●      Headaches or memory problems that may affect concentration or mood.
●      Inflammation or infection of the bladder or rectum that may cause pain or bleeding during urination or bowel movements.
Most side effects are temporary and will go away after the treatment is completed. However, some side effects may be long-lasting or permanent, such as infertility, nerve damage, lymphedema (swelling caused by fluid build-up), or secondary cancers.
Radiation therapy is an effective and safe way to treat many types of cancer. However, it is not suitable for everyone and it may have some risks and limitations. Therefore, it is important to discuss with your doctor about the benefits and drawbacks of radiation therapy for your specific situation before starting the treatment.

Any recommendations for a comprehensive video on puberty blockers?
I feel like I could be more informed but I just can't read anymore. My reading concentration is just gone after getting very little sleep.
It's crazy how hard conservatives are going after a medication that is only prescribed to a few thousand kids. And they seem to be really hung up on the fact that these drugs were used for chemical castration of criminals in the past. A sordid history does not mean the medication shouldn't be used anymore. Shock treatments were used to discipline mental patients in the 60s. Now they are a safe and viable therapy for treatment resistant depression.
And drugs are often used for multiple purposes. Viagra can treat heart issues. Puberty blockers can treat prostate cancer and uterine bleeding. I think they just like the fact they can say scary words like "castration" and "pedophile" and relate it to trans healthcare--even if it is only tangential.
If you need to resort to trickery like that, you probably don't have a strong argument.
I found this exchange especially frustrating.

Developed by J&J subsidiary Janssen Pharmaceutica, fentanyl has been marketed since 1968 under the Sublimaze brand. The drug is currently approved for I.V. administration and used primarily as a short-acting analgesic during anaesthesia. "This new drug delivery system will make it possible for the first time to use fentanyl . . . outside the operating room to control moderate to severe pain." Source

Demystifying Female Infertility: Exploring 5 Potential Causes
Female infertility is a complex condition that affects a significant number of women around the world. The inability to conceive can be emotionally challenging and often prompts a search for answers. While infertility can have various underlying causes, this article aims to shed light on five potential factors that may contribute to female infertility. By understanding these causes, individuals and healthcare professionals can work together to explore appropriate interventions and treatment options.
Hormonal Imbalances: One of the common causes of female infertility is hormonal imbalances. Hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, luteinizing hormone (LH), and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) play vital roles in regulating the menstrual cycle and promoting ovulation. Any disruption in the delicate balance of these hormones can lead to irregular or absent ovulation, making it difficult for women to conceive.
Structural Abnormalities: Structural abnormalities within the reproductive system can also contribute to female infertility. Conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, uterine fibroids, or blocked fallopian tubes can hinder the fertilization process or implantation of a fertilized egg. These conditions may require medical intervention or surgical procedures to restore fertility.
Age-related Factors: Advancing age is a significant factor that impacts female fertility. As women age, the quantity and quality of their eggs decline. The chances of chromosomal abnormalities and miscarriages increase, making it more challenging to conceive naturally. It is important for women to be aware of their reproductive timeline and seek assistance from healthcare professionals if they face difficulties in conceiving as they get older.
Lifestyle Factors: Certain lifestyle factors can contribute to female infertility. Obesity, excessive alcohol consumption, smoking, drug abuse, and high levels of stress can all have adverse effects on reproductive health. These factors can disrupt hormonal balance, interfere with ovulation, and affect the overall fertility of women. Adopting a healthy lifestyle that includes regular exercise, a balanced diet, and stress management techniques can positively impact fertility.
Medical Conditions and Treatments: Certain medical conditions and treatments can also cause infertility in females. Conditions such as thyroid disorders, autoimmune diseases, diabetes, and cancer can affect fertility. Additionally, treatments such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy can damage the reproductive organs and impair fertility. It is crucial for women with these conditions to consult with their healthcare providers to explore fertility preservation options before undergoing such treatments.
Tumblr media
Conclusion: Understanding the potential causes of female infertility is crucial for women and healthcare professionals alike. By identifying these factors, individuals can take proactive steps to address and manage their reproductive health. It is important to remember that each case of infertility is unique, and a comprehensive evaluation by a healthcare professional is essential to determine the underlying cause and develop an appropriate treatment plan. With advancements in medical science and fertility treatments, many individuals can still achieve their dream of starting a family despite facing infertility challenges.

Do you have difficulty conceiving a child? Couples who have failed to conceive using other methods often consider IVF treatment in Kolkata. Here are some reasons why couples consider IVF treatment:
1. Tubal Factor: When the fallopian tubes become blocked or damaged, IVF may be the only viable way to achieve pregnancy. Since the fallopian tubes connect ovaries to womb, and an egg cannot travel down them without impediments, pregnancy cannot occur naturally.
2. Male Infertility: It is a common reason for infertility in couples. If the male partner has low sperm count or abnormalities that hinder fertilization of the egg, IVF with ICSI is frequently recommended for a successful pregnancy and biological baby.
3. Age-related Infertility: As women age, their ovarian function decreases and they may find it increasingly difficult to get pregnant. Some women’s ovarian function decreases earlier, making it necessary to consider IVF treatment sooner.
4. PCOS: Patients living with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) frequently have difficulty becoming pregnant. IVF treatment may be beneficial and help lower some risk factors.
5. Undetermined Infertility: Approximately 20% of couples experience unexplained infertility, without any identifiable reason. IVF treatment has proven to be successful in such cases.
6. Genetic Disease: Couples suffering from genetic disorders who experience repeated miscarriages should consider IVF treatment as the only option for a successful pregnancy.

Uterine Fibroids Surgery India - Best Hospital For Fibroid Surgery In India
Tumblr media
India's sophisticated medical facilities, highly qualified surgeons, and affordable treatment alternatives make uterine fibroid surgery a highly sought-after medical operation. The purpose of the procedure is to remove uterine fibroids, which are non-cancerous growths that can result in infertility, pelvic pain, and excessive monthly bleeding. India provides a range of surgical treatments, such as hysterectomy, which involves removing the uterus entirely in extreme situations, and myomectomy, which maintains the uterus. 
Modern technology and skilled gynecologists specializing in minimally invasive procedures like robotic or laparoscopic surgery are features of top hospitals in places like Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, and Chennai. These procedures guarantee a quicker recovery and fewer complications. 
Depending on the treatment type, hospital, and location, uterine fibroid surgery in India usually costs between INR 60,000 and INR 1,50,000. India is a popular destination for foreign patients due to its excellent medical treatment, reasonable costs, and extensive post-surgery assistance.
What Are The Ways Of Uterine Fibroid Removal Surgery Cost In India?
The type of surgery, the facility, the city, and the patient's health status are some variables that affect the cost of uterine fibroids removal surgery in India. The two main surgical treatments are a hysterectomy, which removes the uterus entirely in more severe cases, and a myomectomy, which removes fibroids while leaving the uterus intact. 
Open surgery, laparoscopic (minimally invasive), or robotic-assisted techniques can all be used to execute the treatment; however, because of the complex technology involved, laparoscopic and robotic approaches are typically more costly. In India, uterine fibroid ectomy surgery normally costs between INR 60,000 and INR 2,50,000. Diagnostic testing, prescription drugs, hospital stays, and post-operative care could all incur additional expenses. Patients can choose smaller cities with reduced healthcare expenditures or look at government facilities, which sometimes provide subsidized rates, to cut costs. 
To make the therapy more accessible, several institutions additionally offer health insurance coverage and EMI options. India is a popular location for fibroid removal surgery because it offers affordable packages that cover operation, lodging, and travel help to patients from outside.
Which Is The Best Hospital For Fibroid Surgery In India?
India is a leading destination for Fibroid surgery and several top Hospitals are included, for instance, AIIMS Hospital comes as an initial choice or recommendation for fertility issues. It is a renowned place to ensure positive outcomes that give relaxation to infertility patients. 
You may consult your infertility issues with AIIMS IVF specialists who suggest or vision you a correct fertility treatment as per your condition. This fertility Hospital always offers tailored IVF treatment plans to keep all infertility patients the same. For both domestic and foreign patients, these facilities provide individualized treatment programs, cost-effective packages, and support services. 
To meet specific needs, patients benefit from interdisciplinary teams of anesthesiologists, surgeons, and fertility specialists. While money, location, and surgeon experience all play a role in selecting the best hospital, India's best medical centers guarantee top-notch uterine fibroid surgery care.
Can A 7 cm Fibroid Be Removed Laparoscopically?
Yes, a 7 cm fibroid can usually be removed laparoscopically, particularly if it is easily accessible or situated in the uterus' outer layers (subserosal fibroids). Using a camera and specialized tools, a surgeon can remove fibroids through tiny incisions during a laparoscopic myomectomy, a minimally invasive surgical procedure. Compared to open surgery, this technique is recommended because it has fewer incisions, less blood loss, quicker healing, and shorter hospital stays.
However, the size, location, and number of the fibroid, as well as the patient's general health, all affect how feasible it is to remove a 7 cm tumor laparoscopically. The technique may occasionally be changed to an open surgery if the fibroid is excessively big, deeply entrenched in the uterine wall, or if problems occur during the process. It is crucial to speak with a skilled gynecologist who can evaluate your unique circumstances and choose the best surgical strategy.
How Much Does Uterine Fibroid Removal Cost? - Uterine Fibroid Cost In India
Depending on the surgery type, hospital, region, and specific patient requirements, the cost of uterine fibroid ectomy might vary significantly. The typical price in India is between INR 60,000 and INR 2,50,000. The type of operation (myomectomy, which removes fibroids while leaving the uterus intact) or hysterectomy, which removes the uterus, as well as the surgical technique (open surgery, laparoscopic, or robotic-assisted), have a big influence on the cost. Despite being less intrusive, laparoscopic and robotic procedures are usually more costly because they require sophisticated tools and technology.
Diagnostic testing, prescription drugs, hospital stays, and aftercare may incur additional expenses. Fibroid removal operations are frequently covered by insurance policies, however, patients should confirm the exact details of their policy. To make the surgery more inexpensive, several clinics and hospitals now provide EMI options. To comprehend the charges and obtain individualized treatment advice, speaking with a trained professional at a respectable hospital is essential.
How To Remove Fibroid Without Surgery? - Fibroid Removal Step With Surgery
Fibroids can sometimes be treated without surgery using various non-invasive or minimally invasive methods, depending on their size, location, and symptoms. One option is medication, such as Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone (GnRH) agonists, which shrink fibroids by reducing estrogen levels, though this is usually a temporary solution. Hormonal birth control can also help manage symptoms like heavy bleeding, but it doesn't reduce fibroid size.
Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE), a minimally invasive technique that involves injecting tiny particles into the blood vessels supplying the fibroid to cut off its blood supply and cause it to shrink, is another successful non-surgical strategy. Another non-invasive procedure that uses high-intensity ultrasound waves to kill fibroid tissue is MRI-guided focused ultrasound.
Which Is More Painful, Myomectomy Or C-Section?
Depending on the patient, the surgical method, and the scope of the treatment, the degree of discomfort following a myomectomy or C-section can differ. Although both surgeries are generally regarded as significant operations, their goals and levels of difficulty vary.
A C-section entails making an incision in the abdomen and uterus to deliver the baby. The combined burden of recovering from surgery and tending to a newborn might make recovery difficult. Medication is normally used to alleviate pain, but the recuperation time usually lasts six to eight weeks.
In contrast, uterine fibroids are removed during a myomectomy, leaving the uterus intact for future conception or symptom alleviation. The recovery and agony are similar to those of a C-section if open surgery is used. However, smaller incisions are typically made during laparoscopic or robotic-assisted myomectomy, which means less pain and a quicker recovery—typically within two to four weeks.
Because laparoscopic myomectomy is less intrusive than open myomectomy or C-sections, it is generally less uncomfortable. For individualized pain treatment and recovery advice based on their unique situation, patients should speak with their physician.
What Is The Newest Way To Remove Fibroid?
The newest and most advanced method for removing fibroids is MR-guided Focused Ultrasound Surgery (MRgFUS). This non-invasive treatment uses high-intensity ultrasound waves to target and destroy fibroid tissue while preserving the surrounding healthy uterine tissue. The procedure is performed under the guidance of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), which provides precise visualization of the fibroids and ensures accurate delivery of ultrasound energy. 
MRgFUS does not require any incisions, making it a safe and effective option with minimal downtime. Patients typically resume normal activities within a day or two. It is most suitable for women with symptomatic fibroids who wish to avoid surgery and maintain their fertility. 
Other innovative approaches include Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE), a minimally invasive technique that cuts off the fibroid's blood supply, causing it to shrink, and robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery, which provides high precision and quicker recovery.
How Many Hours Does Fibroid Surgery Take?
The duration of fibroid surgery depends on the type of procedure performed, the number and size of fibroids, and their location. On average, a myomectomy (surgical removal of fibroids while preserving the uterus) can take anywhere from 1 to 4 hours. 
Minimally invasive procedures, such as laparoscopic or robotic-assisted myomectomy, typically take about 2 to 3 hours, as they involve smaller incisions and advanced techniques. Open surgery, or abdominal myomectomy, may take longer, especially if there are multiple or large fibroids.
