Infertility surgery is a type of surgical procedure performed to address underlying anatomical or structural issues that may be contributing to infertility in men or women. These surgical procedures aim to improve the chances of natural conception or increase the success rates of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) such as in vitro fertilization (IVF).
Infertility surgery can be performed using various techniques depending on the underlying cause of infertility. Common types of infertility surgery include:
Individuals or couples experiencing infertility due to anatomical or structural issues may be candidates for infertility surgery. A thorough evaluation by a fertility specialist or reproductive endocrinologist is necessary to determine the underlying cause of infertility and recommend appropriate treatment options. Factors such as the type and severity of infertility, the age of the patient, and the presence of other medical conditions will also be considered in the decision-making process.
The success rate of infertility surgery depends on various factors, including the type of surgery performed, the underlying cause of infertility, and the individual characteristics of the patient. In some cases, infertility surgery can significantly improve the chances of natural conception or increase the success rates of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) such as in vitro fertilization (IVF). However, success rates may vary, and not all patients will achieve pregnancy following infertility surgery.
Rest and Limit Activity: Avoid strenuous activities, heavy lifting, and vigorous exercise for the recommended period.
Keep the Area Clean: Gently clean the surgical area with water and mild soap as directed by your surgeon. Pat the area dry with a clean towel, and avoid rubbing or scrubbing.
Take Prescribed Medications: Take any prescribed pain medications, antibiotics, or other medications as instructed by your surgeon to manage pain and prevent infection.
Avoid Sexual Activity: Refrain from sexual intercourse and other sexual activities until your surgeon advises it is safe to do so. This typically takes several weeks to a month or more, depending on individual healing.
Wear Loose Clothing: Wear loose-fitting clothing, preferably cotton underwear, to minimize friction and promote airflow to the surgical area.
Attend Follow-Up Appointments: Keep all scheduled follow-up appointments with your surgeon to monitor your healing progress and address any concerns or complications promptly.
Avoid Tampons and Menstrual Cups: Refrain from using tampons and menstrual cups during your recovery period to prevent irritation and infection.
Stay Hydrated and Eat Nutritious Foods: Drink plenty of water and eat a balanced diet rich in vitamins and nutrients to support healing and boost your immune system.
