Comparing ways to reduce blood loss during fibroid surgery
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests different methods to minimize blood loss during laparoscopic surgery to remove uterine fibroids. It may help women with heavy bleeding or trouble getting pregnant.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 39 years old.
- You have heavy periods or trouble getting pregnant due to fibroids.
- You have up to 3 fibroids in the uterus that are not inside the cavity.
- You have not used hormones to treat fibroids before.
- You are not pregnant and have no bleeding disorders.

This trial compares two surgical techniques to reduce bleeding during surgery to remove fibroids (benign tumors) from the uterus. The goal is to find the safest, least-bloody approach for women who need this procedure.
This trial compares two medications (ergometrine and carbetocin) given during surgery to see which one is better at reducing bleeding while removing fibroids. Both drugs help the uterus contract to control blood loss.
This study compares two different medications given as shots during laparoscopic fibroid (myomectomy) surgery. The goal is to see which shot better reduces blood loss and helps keep hemoglobin (a blood oxygen-carrying protein) from dropping too much.
This trial compares two injected medicines (terlipressin vs carbetocin) given into the uterus during open fibroid (myomectomy) surgery to see which one reduces blood loss and helps maintain hemoglobin. It may help patients by targeting lower bleeding during surgery.
This trial compares two methods to reduce bleeding during minimally invasive surgery to remove fibroids (noncancerous growths) from the uterus. You'll receive either a temporary tourniquet (a band that temporarily stops blood flow) or an injection of epinephrine (adrenaline) around the fibroid, and doctors will measure which approach works better and is safer.
This trial tests whether temporarily clamping the main blood vessels to the uterus during laparoscopic fibroid removal can reduce blood loss. It is for women with up to four fibroids who are planning this type of surgery.
