Myosure

MyoSure and TruClear are systems for removing polyps and fibroids from your uterus. You can undergo a Hologic MyoSure hysteroscopy or a polypectomy with MyoSure. Additionally, a TruClear fibroid and polyp removal procedure offers benefits not found in traditional surgery. All are new procedures, but safe and effective. Talk to your gynecologist in Queens, NYC to discuss if you can take advantage of either system.

Myosure

Uterine fibroids and endometrial polyps are two of the leading causes of excessive bleeding in women. Fibroids can cause heavy bleeding during your period, and cause your period to last longer than usual. Polyps can cause bleeding to occur between your periods.

A myomectomy is the removal of fibroids and a polypectomy with MyoSure is the removal of polyps. Previously, two of the main options to noticeably relieve these conditions were a hysterectomy or procedures that used electric current to potentially burn and scar the uterus. For women who are interested in conceiving, these options were not acceptable.

New Options for Removing Polyps and Fibroids

The MyoSure hysterocsope and TruClear fibroid and polyp removal procedures have presented new processes that not only shorten surgery and your exposure to anesthesia, they also don't use electricity. Plus, there is a reduced chance of uterine damage with these procedures.

Hologic MyoSure and TruClear fibroid and polyp removal are systems that provide simple and accurate removal of intrauterine tissue, including submucous myomas or fibroids. The processes also eliminate endometrial polyps that appear inside your uterus, while retaining your tools of conception.

Both Treatments Follow a Similar Process

Both the Hologic MyoSure and TruClear fibroid and polyp removal follow the same steps to remove unwanted tissue:

1. An instrument known as a hysteroscope is inserted into your uterus through your vagina and past your cervix.
2. A saline solution is introduced to inflate the uterus slightly for better visuals. This does not harm your uterus.
3. The hysteroscope has a small camera at the tip of the wand for your Forest Hills, Queens gynecologist to view the uterus and the unwanted tissue.
4. A small cutting instrument is inserted through the hysteroscope to shave the unwanted tissue into very small pieces.
5. These pieces are suctioned out with the hysteroscope or washed away with the saline solution at the end of the procedure.

Since the procedures use no electricity and need no external incisions, each process is a minimally invasive technique. As a result, the procedures are quicker and safer than even minimally invasive myomectomy and polypectomy techniques. Plus, your recovery time is greatly reduced. Both the Hologic MyoSure and TruClear fibroid and polyp removal systems are typically performed on an outpatient basis and leave your uterine function and form intact.

Aftercare for Your Procedure

As with any gynecological procedure, you may experience some mild cramping, but you can control the discomfort by taking over-the-counter or prescription pain relievers. Heat can help with the cramping, but do not take aspirin as it can cause bleeding. You should be able to return to most normal activities within a couple of days.

Check with your gynecologist in Queens, NYC if any of the following issues or concerns arise:

• You experience a fever of 100.4 degrees or higher.
• Your pelvic pain worsens and is not relieved by pain medications.
• You experience nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath or dizziness.
• You have difficulty emptying your bladder or having bowel movements.
• There is a greenish vaginal discharge. A reddish, yellowish or brownish discharge is normal.
• You have significant bleeding after the procedure.

Some women experience regrowth of their fibroids or polyps, depending on their age, genetics and other conditions. Continue with your normal check-ups. If new growths are found, you can safely undergo this procedure again.
