Minimally Invasive Solutions: Understanding Laparoscopic Assisted Vaginal Hysterectomy (LAVH) at Lotus IVF, Coimbatore
At Lotus IVF, Coimbatore, our mission is deeply rooted in women’s health. While we are renowned for helping couples achieve their dreams of starting a family, our commitment to the well-being of women in Coimbatore extends to offering advanced surgical solutions for various gynecological conditions. Among these, Laparoscopic Assisted Vaginal Hysterectomy (LAVH) stands out as a modern, minimally invasive approach to addressing complex uterine issues.

What is LAVH?
LAVH is a surgical procedure to remove the uterus, performed using a combination of laparoscopic (keyhole) techniques and a vaginal approach. This innovative method allows surgeons to perform the hysterectomy with minimal incisions on the abdomen, leading to significant benefits compared to traditional open surgery. At Lotus IVF, our highly skilled gynecological surgeons are experts in performing LAVH, ensuring precise and compassionate care.

A hysterectomy is a significant surgical decision, and our specialists at Lotus IVF will thoroughly discuss all your options before recommending LAVH. This procedure is typically considered when non-surgical treatments have not been effective in managing debilitating gynecological conditions such as:
- Uterine Fibroids: Benign (non-cancerous) growths in the uterus that can cause severe symptoms like heavy bleeding, pelvic pain, or pressure.
- Endometriosis: A painful disorder where tissue similar to the lining inside the uterus grows outside the uterus, leading to chronic pain and other issues.
- Abnormal Uterine Bleeding: Persistent or excessive vaginal bleeding that significantly impacts quality of life and doesn’t respond to other treatments.
- Adenomyosis: A condition where the tissue that normally lines the uterus grows into the muscular wall of the uterus, causing pain and heavy bleeding.
- Uterine Prolapse: When the uterus descends into the vaginal canal due to weakened pelvic floor muscles.
