Summary

This study follows 200 women having surgery for symptomatic uterine fibroids to see how their pelvic floor changes over a year. Half will have a hysterectomy, half a myomectomy. Researchers will measure pelvic floor structure and symptoms at 1, 6, and 12 months after surgery. The goal is to understand which operation better preserves pelvic floor health.

What could go wrong: This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It will not prove which surgery is better, only describe differences. Results may not apply to all women.
