Fertility Surgeries in Southern California

Pacific Reproductive Center provides comprehensive fertility care and offers innovative surgical fertility treatments that improve reproductive outcomes.

Reproductive surgery for female infertility includes various procedures aimed at addressing the underlying causes of fertility issues. Fertility surgery aims to enhance reproductive potential by addressing multiple conditions that may affect a woman’s ability to conceive.

Common Causes of Female Infertility

Female reproductive health can be affected by various conditions and challenges.

These conditions can hinder fertility, cause discomfort, and impact overall well-being.

Fortunately, advancements in medical technology have provided minimally invasive fertility surgery options that address these specific issues and restore reproductive viability.

Minimally invasive surgical interventions can address the following reproductive obstacles:

  • Cervical Polyps
    One common reproductive challenge faced by women is the presence of polyps in the cervix. Polyps are small growths or non-cancerous tumors.
    The size of polyps vary and can trigger uncomfortable symptoms, including heavy or abnormal bleeding, pain during sexual intercourse, or vaginal discharge.
    Hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive fertility surgery generally recommended for the removal of cervical polyps, restoring normal functioning, and improving fertility.
  • Uterine Fibroids
    Fibroids are mainly non-cancerous tumors that grow in the uterine wall. Fibroids, particularly large or numerous fibroids, can cause complications, including heavy menstrual flow, pain during intercourse, and frequent urination.
    Fibroid growths can affect fertility by blocking the passage of eggs through the fallopian tubes and creating a hostile uterine environment for embryo implantation. Removing fibroids through myomectomy can alleviate this obstruction, improving the likelihood of conception.
  • Fallopian Tube Blockage
    The fallopian tubes are the channels that transport eggs from the ovaries to the uterine cavity. Obstructed fallopian tubes can inhibit transport, making conception difficult. Blocked fallopian tubes can be caused by surgical scar tissue, endometriosis, fibroids, pelvic inflammatory disease, or sexually transmitted infections.
    Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive reproductive surgery that allows the surgeon to visualize and access the fallopian tubes. Special instruments can then open the tubes, potentially improving fertility.
  • Endometriosis
    Endometriosis occurs when endometrial tissue spreads outside the uterus. The excess tissue affects pelvic organs such as the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and intestines.
    Endometriosis can cause pain during intercourse, pain during menstruation, and infertility. Laparoscopy is often performed to diagnose endometriosis and surgically remove endometrial implants, improving fertility and reducing the severity of symptoms.

Surgical Treatment for Female Infertility

Pacific Reproductive Center offers the following surgical fertility treatment for female reproductive challenges:

  • Myomectomy
    Myomectomy is a uterus-preserving surgical intervention for fibroid removal. The procedure can be performed through open surgery or using minimally invasive laparoscopic or hysteroscopic techniques.
  • Laparoscopy
    Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive reproductive surgery performed through small incisions in the abdomen. It allows the surgeon to see and remove fallopian tube blockage using specialized instruments. Also known as keyhole surgery, laparoscopy is often used as a diagnostic intervention or to treat endometriosis.
  • Hysteroscopy
    Hysteroscopy is a fertility surgery that allows the surgeon to examine the inner uterine lining, including the fallopian tubes. A small, narrow tube with a fiber-optic camera is inserted through the vagina and cervix to provide a clear view of the reproductive organs. Any blockages in the tubes can be visualized and removed, improving fertility.

Benefits of Minimally Invasive Surgical Fertility Treatments

Minimally invasive reproductive surgery for female infertility offers several advantages compared to traditional open surgery. They include:

  • Faster Recovery
    Compared to open surgery, these procedures involve smaller incisions, resulting in less scarring and faster recovery times.
  • Better Visualization
    With laparoscopy and hysteroscopy, the surgeon has a clear view of the reproductive organs, allowing for more accurate diagnosis and removal of blockages.
  • Enhanced Patient Comfort
    The minimally invasive nature of these procedures reduces pain, discomfort, and anxiety for the patient.

Male Fertility Surgery

Male fertility surgeries are medical procedures aimed at improving reproductive health in men. These surgeries can be minimally invasive, allowing the medical team to identify and address potential complications. Two common procedures are varicocele treatment and tissue biopsies.

  • Varicocele Treatment
    Varicocele is a condition in which enlarged veins in the lower scrotum, near the testicles, cause discomfort and hinder sperm production.
    Varicocele treatment involves surgically repairing these veins to restore normal blood flow and improve sperm quality. This intervention is typically performed through a small incision in the scrotum, allowing the surgeon to identify and tie off the affected veins.
  • Tissue Biopsies
    Tissue biopsies are procedures that involve the removal of a small sample of tissue from the body for examination under a microscope. In male fertility surgeries, tissue biopsies may be performed to evaluate testicular health. These biopsies help identify abnormalities that may contribute to infertility.

It is important to note that any male fertility surgery should be conducted by experienced specialists who thoroughly evaluate each patient’s medical circumstances. These procedures aim to optimize male reproductive health and improve the chances of conception.

It is critical to discuss any concerns or questions you may have with your medical professional before considering any fertility surgery.
