(Expert Insights by Dr. Megha Khanna, the Best Lady Gynecologist in Kolkata)
When it comes to women's health, surgery—especially a hysterectomy—can be a big decision. But did you know that you can now undergo this procedure with minimal pain, faster recovery, and almost no scars?
Laparoscopic Hysterectomy is transforming women’s surgical care—and in Kolkata, Dr. Megha Khanna is a name you can trust for this advanced procedure.
What Is Laparoscopic Hysterectomy?
A laparoscopic hysterectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to remove the uterus. Instead of large abdominal incisions, small keyhole cuts are made, and the uterus is removed using specialized tools guided by a camera (laparoscope).
🩺 Why Might You Need a Hysterectomy?
This procedure is often recommended for:
- Uterine fibroids causing heavy bleeding or pain
- Endometriosis that doesn't respond to medication
- Uterine prolapse (uterus slipping into the vaginal canal)
- Chronic pelvic pain not linked to other treatable causes
- Cancer or pre-cancer of the uterus, cervix, or ovaries
🧠 Who Should Perform a Laparoscopic Hysterectomy?
The precision and safety of this surgery depend heavily on the skill of the gynecologist. You need someone with:
- Advanced laparoscopic surgical training
- Extensive experience with women’s health conditions
- A high success rate with minimally invasive techniques
- Compassionate, patient-centered care
That’s where Dr. Megha Khanna shines—known widely as the best lady gynecologist in Kolkata, she brings a rare blend of technical excellence and empathy to every patient interaction.
