Fertility Surgery
Infertility can have a variety of causes, and in some cases, surgical treatment is the best way to give patients the highest chance of success. Many fertility surgery procedures are minimally invasive, allowing patients a quick recovery period, and some can even be performed on an outpatient-basis at one of our Kindbody locations.
Unlike major procedures, minimally invasive surgeries involve small incisions, the insertion of slender instruments, and at times tiny cameras to help visualize progress on a monitor. These procedures are sometimes referred to as laparoscopic or keyhole procedures. The recovery time is often significantly shorter, they are safer, and more tolerable to patients, some can even be performed on an outpatient-basis at one of our Kindbody locations.

If you are seeking fertility surgery, it’s important to meet with a fertility specialist to become well informed before pursuing any treatment option. Our Kindbody fertility specialists can help you determine whether surgical or non-surgical infertility treatments are the best way to help you improve your fertility health and achieve your family building goals.

After determining your diagnosis and collaborating with you to develop your treatment plan, your Kindbody fertility specialist will work with you to help facilitate all aspects of your treatment. Many fertility procedures can be performed at one of our Kindbody clinics on an outpatient basis. For some procedures, such as egg retrievals, we offer personalized care at our state-of-the-art Surgery Centers. We also partner with general practitioners and other minimally invasive specialists at local hospitals to perform select procedures when needed.
Fertility surgeries are primarily used to treat anatomic defects that impair the ability to conceive (in women) or the ability to produce healthy sperm (in men). Alternatively, medical (non-surgical) treatment options are often used when hormone imbalances are responsible for infertility.
For women, some diagnoses that most commonly require surgery include: endometriosis, uterine fibroids, polyps, pelvic adhesions, and tubal abnormalities (such as hydrosalpinx)
For men, surgical treatments for infertility can include testicular sperm extraction (TESE), vasectomy reversal and varicocele repair.
