Rahul Malhotra, 42, is a single...
Rahul Malhotra, 42, is a single father to a 10-year-old daughter. He has been the primary caregiver since his wife passed away from cervical cancer five years ago. Rahul began experiencing persistent, heavy, and painful periods that left him fatigued and unable to keep up with his active daughter. After several months of worsening symptoms and a diagnosis of multiple large uterine fibroids, his gynecologist recommended a hysteroplasty (uterine fibroid removal with uterine reconstruction) to preserve his uterus and fertility, as Rahul hopes to potentially have more children in the future. The laparoscopic procedure was successful, removing the fibroids while carefully reconstructing the uterine wall. Recovery took about four weeks, with initial discomfort giving way to a significant reduction in pain and bleeding. Emotionally, Rahul felt anxious about the surgery's impact on his future family plans and his current ability to care for his daughter. After a full recovery, he felt immense relief, physically rejuvenated, and hopeful about his future, grateful to have a treatment that addressed his symptoms while honoring his personal goals.
