Understanding Uterus Fibroids with Dr. Sriprada Vinekar | Manipal hospital Old Airport Road

In this video, Dr. Sriprada Vinekar, a Senior Gynaecologist and Minimal Invasive Surgeon at Manipal Hospital, Old Airport Road, discusses a common health issue: uterine fibroids. These are mostly non-cancerous tumours that affect nearly 50% to 60% of women. However, Dr. Vinekar emphasizes that having a fibroid does not always mean you need surgery. She explains that the decision to treat depends on the specific woman’s health and well-being rather than just the presence of the tumour itself. Dr. Vinekar breaks down the factors that determine if treatment is necessary, such as the size of the fibroid, its location in the uterus, and the symptoms it causes. By focusing on "treating the woman, not the fibroid," she ensures that patients at Manipal Hospital receive personalized care tailored to their unique needs. Whether you are experiencing pain or have no symptoms at all, this guide will help you understand when to seek medical intervention for fibroids.
