Fibroid Specialist Kogarah
Advanced Care for Fibroids That Shouldn’t Be Ignored
Many women live with fibroids for years before receiving the right diagnosis or treatment. Heavy periods become normal. Pelvic pressure is dismissed as part of ageing. Fertility struggles are blamed on other causes. The truth is that fibroids can have a significant impact on a woman’s health, comfort, and quality of life.
At Medgyne, women have access to a highly-experienced fibroid specialist in Kogarah who understands that every fibroid case is different. Whether you are experiencing severe symptoms, planning a pregnancy, or have been told surgery may be necessary, our goal is to provide clear answers and personalised treatment options that suit your needs.
Understanding Fibroids: More Than Just a Common Women’s Condition
Fibroids are non-cancerous growths that develop within or around the uterus. While many fibroids remain small and symptom-free, others can grow significantly and interfere with daily life, fertility, and reproductive health.
Common symptoms of fibroids include:
- Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
- Pelvic pain or pressure
- Frequent urination
- Bloating or abdominal swelling
- Lower back pain
- Pain during intercourse
- Fertility challenges
- Recurrent miscarriage in some cases
Not all fibroids require treatment. However, when symptoms begin affecting your health or lifestyle, specialist assessment becomes important.
Why Expert Fibroid Assessment Is Essential
Fibroids vary greatly in size, number, and location. A small fibroid inside the uterine cavity may cause more problems than a larger fibroid located elsewhere.
Dr. Tanushree Rao is an AGES-certified advanced laparoscopic and robotic surgeon with extensive experience managing simple and complex fibroid cases. Her training across Australia, the United Kingdom, and India has provided advanced expertise in treating women with multiple fibroids, large fibroids, fertility-related concerns, and high-BMI surgical patients.
Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution, every treatment plan is developed through shared decision-making, ensuring women understand their options and remain in control of their care.
Fibroid Diagnosis and Treatment Options
A thorough assessment may include ultrasound imaging, MRI scans, blood tests, and a detailed review of symptoms and reproductive goals.
| Fibroid Concern | Possible Treatment Approach |
|---|---|
| Small fibroids with minimal symptoms | Monitoring and regular reviews |
| Heavy menstrual bleeding | Medical management or minimally-invasive procedures |
| Fertility-related fibroids | Myomectomy (fibroid removal) |
| Multiple or large fibroids | Advanced laparoscopic or robotic surgery |
| Severe symptoms with a complete family | Hysterectomy when appropriate |
As a trusted fibroid specialist in Kogarah, Dr. Rao focuses on evidence-based treatment options that balance symptom relief, fertility preservation, and long-term wellbeing.
Advanced Minimally Invasive Fibroid Surgery
Modern gynaecological surgery has transformed the way fibroids are treated. Open surgery is no longer the only option for many women.
Dr. Rao has developed a strong interest in advanced laparoscopic and robotic procedures, including myomectomy for fibroid removal and complex hysterectomy procedures.
Women requiring robotic myomectomy in Sydney can benefit from advanced minimally-invasive techniques designed to preserve the uterus while effectively treating symptomatic fibroids.
Benefits of minimally-invasive surgery may include:
- Smaller incisions
- Less blood loss
- Reduced postoperative pain
- Faster recovery
- Shorter hospital stays
- Lower risk of complications
- Faster return to normal activities
Her surgical experience includes the removal of multiple fibroids, large fibroids, and complex cases where preserving the uterus is an important priority.
Fertility, Pregnancy and Fibroids
Many women worry about how fibroids may affect their chances of conceiving or carrying a pregnancy.
Depending on their location and size, fibroids may:
- Affect embryo implantation
- Distort the uterine cavity
- Increase the risk of miscarriage
- Cause pregnancy complications
- Contribute to infertility
A detailed fertility-focused assessment can help determine whether fibroid treatment may improve reproductive outcomes. Women planning pregnancy often benefit from consulting a fibroid specialist in Kogarah before symptoms worsen or fertility treatments begin.
