Understanding minimally invasive gynecologic surgery

Many women considering gynecologic surgery feel overwhelmed, uncertain, or exhausted after years of dealing with pain, heavy bleeding, or unresolved concerns. Understanding your options can help you move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Minimally invasive gynecologic surgery (MIGS) uses advanced laparoscopic, robotic and hysteroscopic techniques to diagnose and treat gynecologic conditions through small incisions — or, in some cases, no incisions at all. Compared with traditional open surgery, MIGS reduces pain, shortens recovery time and allows for a smoother healing process.

While many patients search for non-invasive surgery, most procedures are more accurately described as minimally invasive or incision-free. MIGS can help diagnose and treat a range of conditions, including fibroids, abnormal bleeding, endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain.
