Gynaecological Surgery

What Is Gynaecological Surgery

Gynaecological surgery involves procedures related to the female reproductive system, including:

Uterus
Ovaries
Fallopian tubes
Cervix
Vagina

These surgeries are performed to diagnose or treat various women’s health conditions, such as:

Uterine fibroids
Ovarian cysts
Endometriosis
Abnormal uterine bleeding
Gynaecological cancers

Depending on the condition, surgery may be performed through minimally invasive (laparoscopic or hysteroscopic) techniques or open procedures. Minimally invasive options often result in smaller incisions, less pain, and quicker recovery times.

Which Specialist Performs Gynaecological Surgery?

Gynaecological surgery is performed by an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist (O&G specialist), a doctor trained in women’s reproductive health, pregnancy care, and gynaecological disorders. These specialists may work closely with oncologists, radiologists, and fertility experts to provide comprehensive care, especially for complex or cancer-related cases.

At Subang Jaya Medical Centre (SJMC), our O&G specialists are experienced in both general and advanced surgical procedures, ensuring safe, effective, and personalised treatment for every patient.

What Does It Comprise

Gynaecological surgery includes a wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, such as:

Hysterectomy – Removal of the uterus for fibroids, heavy bleeding, or cancer.
Ovarian cystectomy – Removal of benign or complex cysts from the ovaries.
Myomectomy – Surgical removal of uterine fibroids while preserving fertility.
Endometriosis surgery – Treating pelvic pain or infertility caused by endometrial tissue growth.
Laparoscopic or hysteroscopic procedures – Minimally invasive options for diagnosis and treatment.
Dilation and curettage (D&C) – Managing abnormal uterine bleeding or miscarriage.
Pelvic floor repair – Addressing prolapse or urinary incontinence (often with urogynaecology input).
Oncologic procedures – Surgery for ovarian, uterine, or cervical cancers.

How Your Condition Is Assessed

Before recommending surgery, your O&G specialist will conduct a thorough assessment to understand your symptoms and overall health. This may include a detailed medical history, physical and pelvic examination, and imaging tests such as ultrasound, CT, or MRI scans.

These evaluations help determine the exact cause of your condition and whether surgical or non-surgical treatment is the most suitable option for you.
