What is Laparoscopic Surgery for Infertility?
Laparoscopy involves inserting a thin instrument called a laparoscope (with a camera) through a small incision in the abdomen. This allows the doctor to see the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries clearly and perform necessary treatments such as removing cysts, fibroids, adhesions, or correcting blocked tubes.
It is considered the gold standard for both diagnosing infertility causes and treating them in the same sitting.

Laparoscopy may be recommended for women who experience:
- Blocked fallopian tubes or tubal damage.

- Ovarian cysts or polycystic ovaries (PCOS).
