What Is Laparoscopic Surgery, and What Is Fertility Enhancing Surgery?
In laparoscopic surgery, the surgeon makes a few small cuts and uses a thin camera and fine instruments to see and treat problems inside the abdomen and pelvis. Because the cuts are small, there is less pain, less scarring and a quicker recovery than open surgery. Hysteroscopy is a related keyhole method that works inside the uterus, with no cuts at all.
Fertility enhancing surgery is laparoscopic or hysteroscopic surgery done with one goal: to improve your chance of pregnancy. As a laparoscopic specialist focused on fertility, Dr. Manjunath treats the exact problem, while carefully preserving the uterus, tubes and healthy ovarian tissue.
Laparoscopy and hysteroscopy, in short
- Laparoscopy: keyhole surgery through small cuts in the abdomen, to treat the ovaries, tubes and outside of the uterus
- Hysteroscopy: a camera inside the uterus, with no cuts, to treat polyps, scar tissue or a septum
- Often combined: many couples have both in one sitting, so every factor is treated together
Conditions Treated with Laparoscopic Fertility Surgery
As a laparoscopy specialist, Dr. Manjunath performs the following fertility enhancing procedures. Each is planned around your goal of pregnancy.
Endometriosis surgery
Careful laparoscopic removal of endometriosis to relieve pain and improve the chance of pregnancy.
Laparoscopic myomectomy
Removal of uterine fibroids while keeping the uterus, for women who want to conceive.
Ovarian cystectomy
Removal of ovarian cysts, including endometriomas, while protecting healthy ovarian tissue.
Adhesiolysis
Release of pelvic adhesions and scar tissue from earlier surgery or infection, to restore normal anatomy.
Hysteroscopic polyp and septum surgery
Removal of uterine polyps, scar tissue or a uterine septum that can block implantation, with no cuts on the abdomen.
Ovarian drilling for PCOS
A keyhole option for selected women with PCOS when medicines have not restored ovulation.
Gynaecological laparoscopic surgery Bangalore couples need is always planned with care, so that surgery helps fertility rather than simply treating a scan finding.
Pregnancy After Laparoscopy: What to Expect
The most common question couples ask is about pregnancy after laparoscopy. The honest answer is that getting pregnant after laparoscopy is possible for many women once the cause has been corrected, and after laparoscopy pregnancy is possible both naturally and with treatment such as IUI or IVF.
Chances of pregnancy after laparoscopy
The chances of pregnancy after laparoscopy depend on your age, the reason for the surgery, whether the tubes are open and healthy, the quality of sperm, and your ovarian reserve. Because of this, the after laparoscopy pregnancy success rate is different for every couple, and no honest doctor can promise a fixed number. Your after laparoscopy pregnancy chances are usually highest in the first 6 to 12 months after surgery.
When both the uterus and the pelvis are treated together, the chances of pregnancy after hysteroscopy and laparoscopy can improve at the same time, because more than one barrier has been removed.
How soon can you try?
Pregnancy success after laparoscopy is often best when you try at the right time. Dr. Manjunath will advise when it is safe to start trying, and whether to try naturally first or to move to IUI or IVF, based on your age and diagnosis.

Benefits and Risks of Laparoscopic Surgery
Benefits
- Small cuts, less pain and a quicker recovery than open surgery
- Treats the physical cause of infertility, not just the symptoms
- Preserves the uterus, tubes and healthy ovarian tissue wherever possible
- Can improve the chance of natural conception and the success of IVF
- Often relieves pain from endometriosis or fibroids as well
- A clearer diagnosis, because the surgeon can see the pelvis directly
Risks
- As with any surgery, small risks of bleeding, infection or anaesthesia, which are assessed beforehand
- Rare injury to nearby organs, which an experienced surgeon works carefully to avoid
- Some conditions, such as endometriosis or adhesions, can recur over time
- Not every condition improves fertility when treated, so careful selection matters
Dr. Manjunath discusses every benefit and risk with you before you decide, so there are no surprises.
Recovery After Laparoscopy
Keyhole surgery is designed for a quicker, more comfortable recovery than open surgery. The exact recovery depends on the procedure and your health.
- Most keyhole procedures are day care, with home the same day or after a short stay
- Mild shoulder tip discomfort, bloating or tiredness for a day or two is common and settles on its own
- Light activity usually resumes within a few days, and heavier work a little later
- Small scars fade over time
- Call the clinic at once if you have fever, heavy bleeding or severe pain
Does laparoscopy delay period?
Does laparoscopy delay period timing? Sometimes. Your next period can come a little early or a little late, and may be heavier or lighter than usual for one cycle, because of the surgery and anaesthesia. This usually settles by the following cycle. If your period is very delayed, let the clinic know so a pregnancy can be checked.
Laparoscopic Surgery Cost in Bangalore
People often ask about laparoscopic surgery cost before they decide. The honest answer is that laparoscopic surgery cost depends on the exact procedure, the anaesthesia and day care needs, and the hospital. A fair price is one that is clear from the start, so you receive an itemised estimate after your evaluation, before anything begins.
