Indications for Laparoscopy by Dr. Nirmala Murthy:

1. Diagnostic Laparoscopy: Dr. Murthy may recommend diagnostic laparoscopy to investigate the cause of symptoms such as pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, or infertility. By directly visualizing the pelvic organs, she can identify abnormalities such as ovarian cysts, endometriosis, pelvic adhesions, or structural abnormalities.
2. Treatment of Endometriosis: Laparoscopy is often used to diagnose and treat endometriosis, a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus, causing pelvic pain and infertility. Dr. Nirmala Murthy can perform excision or ablation of endometriotic lesions during laparoscopy to alleviate symptoms and improve fertility.
3. Ovarian Cystectomy: Laparoscopic cystectomy is a minimally invasive approach to removing ovarian cysts, which may be causing symptoms such as pelvic pain or abnormal bleeding. Dr. Murthy can safely remove ovarian cysts while preserving the ovary and its function.
4. Hysterectomy: Laparoscopic hysterectomy is a minimally invasive alternative to traditional open hysterectomy for the removal of the uterus. Dr. Nirmala Murthy may recommend laparoscopic hysterectomy for conditions such as uterine fibroids, abnormal uterine bleeding, pelvic organ prolapse, or gynecologic cancers.
5. Myomectomy: Laparoscopic myomectomy involves the removal of uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus. Dr. Murthy can perform laparoscopic myomectomy to treat symptomatic fibroids and alleviate symptoms such as heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, or pressure symptoms.
6. Sterilization: Laparoscopic sterilization, also known as tubal ligation or "having your tubes tied," is a minimally invasive procedure for permanent contraception. Dr. Nirmala Murthy can perform laparoscopic sterilization by blocking or sealing the fallopian tubes, preventing eggs from reaching the uterus and sperm from reaching the eggs.
