Gaby Moawad, MD, FACOG, explains the most common minimally invasive gynecologic surgeries, including hysterectomy, removal of fibroids and ovarian cysts, endometriosis, and prolapse correction, as well as the benefits (fewer complications, faster recovery). Dr. Moawad also discusses why it's important for women considering these types of procedures to feel empowered to ask questions about the surgeon's experience and success rates, to help ensure the best possible outcomes.
