She Didn’t Need a Hysterectomy to Treat Fibroids, Endometriosis & Adenomyosis: Tinishia's Journey

00:00 Introduction 00:24 Symptoms of Adenomyosis 02:52 Getting a Diagnosis 03:37 Finding the Right Specialists 05:13 Undergoing Surgery 06:21 Surprising Results and Recovery Tinishia had hoped to work with a fertility specialist—so hearing that a hysterectomy was her only option for severe pelvic pain and heavy bleeding was devastating. Determined to find an alternative, she discovered Dr. Paul MacKoul and the expert team at the Center for Innovative GYN Care (CIGC). At CIGC’s New Jersey-based outpatient center, she underwent a single advanced surgery that lasted under two hours. Through just two tiny incisions (one 1.5 cm in the belly button and one 1-inch in the bikini line), CIGC’s GYN hyper-specialists performed: • A LAAM (Laparoscopic-Assisted Abdominal Myomectomy) to remove 20 fibroids • Retroperitoneal excision to fully remove endometriosis—something that may have been missed by a less experienced provider • A focal resection of adenomyosis, a rare and highly specialized procedure done only in select centers like CIGC All of this was covered through her insurance—no cash-only barriers—and performed in a center where dedicated nurses supported her before and after surgery. Compared to her previous robotic procedure, recovery was easier, scarring was minimal, and her care was truly personalized. With less risk of infection than hospital-based surgery, Tinishia walked away with both relief and hope for her future. ✨ Learn more about your options at www.innovativegyn.com #Endometriosis #Adenomyosis #Fibroids #MinimallyInvasiveSurgery #GYNsurgery #HysterectomyAlternatives #WomensHealth #PatientStory #CIGC #GYNcare #FertilityPreservation
