Core Offerings for International Patients
Comprehensive Excision Surgery
Surgery is only as good as the extent to which the disease is removed. At Mayflower, we do not ablate endometriosis, but we excise it completely. This distinction is the single most important factor in whether your symptoms return.
Our surgical team handles every stage of deep infiltrating endometriosis in a single surgical admission, including bowel, bladder, ureteric, and diaphragmatic disease. You do not need multiple surgeons, multiple hospitals, or multiple trips.
For international patients who have had unsuccessful surgery elsewhere, we conduct a comprehensive pre-surgical review of your prior operative reports and imaging before you travel. You know exactly what to expect before you book your flight.

Why Choose Us - The Mayflower Difference
The Mayflower Endometriosis (M.E.) Protocol
Most hospitals treat endometriosis reactively - removing what they can see. The M.E. Protocol is a structured, pre-surgical framework that maps every organ system before the first incision. It ensures nothing is missed, minimises operative time, and reduces the risk of complications. For international patients who cannot afford repeat surgery, this systematic approach is not preferred. It is a necessity.
Innovation to Action
The Butterfly Peritonectomy, the Rule of M, and the 5 Steps of Ureterolysis are not techniques we have read about - they were developed and refined here. These are not experimental. They are the protocols behind our less-than-2 % recurrence rate, and they are the reason patients who have been told their endometriosis is inoperable elsewhere find resolution at Mayflower.
Extensive Experience
Mayflower was India's first women's speciality hospital to introduce advanced laparoscopic techniques for endometriosis over 22 years ago. In that time, we have treated some of the most complex DIE cases referred from across India and internationally. Experience in endometriosis surgery is not measured in years alone. It is measured in the complexity of cases handled, and ours has been consistently high.
Multi-Specialty Care
Endometriosis is not a single-organ disease. When it involves the bowel, you need a GI surgeon in the room. When it involves the ureter, you need a team trained in urological endometriosis - not just urology. At Mayflower, our surgical team for complex DIE includes endometriosis specialists, GI surgeons, and uro-surgeons working together in a single procedure. No handoffs. No gaps.
Awards & Accreditations
Advanced Surgical Techniques Trusted by patients from across Gujarat, India, and over 26+ Countries
The techniques we use at Mayflower are specifically suited to international patients, because complete disease removal in a single procedure is not a preference when you are travelling from abroad. It is a necessity.
Butterfly Peritonectomy
The signature Mayflower technique for severe or recurrent endometriosis. Rather than removing visible lesions alone, the Butterfly Peritonectomy removes the entire diseased peritoneal area in a butterfly-shaped excision - eliminating microscopic disease that conventional surgery leaves behind. This is the primary reason our recurrence rate is under 2%.
Book Now
Ureteric Dissection - 5 Steps of Ureterolysis
When endometriosis spreads to the urinary system and grows around the ureters, standard gynaecologists cannot safely operate. Our 5-step ureterolysis protocol allows Mayflower surgeons to precisely free the ureters from surrounding endometriotic tissue without damaging kidney function. This level of precision is rare outside specialist centres and is one of the key reasons international patients with advanced disease specifically choose India for surgery.
Book Now
Rule of M
A structured surgical map of every pelvic site where endometriosis can lodge. Surgeons follow a defined M-shaped pathway through the pelvis - ensuring deep lesions adjacent to the bowel are systematically found and treated. No guesswork. No areas left unchecked.
Book Now
Minimally Invasive Surgery
All our techniques are performed laparoscopically, wherever possible, with smaller incisions, less blood loss, faster recovery, and a more predictable return-to-travel timeline for international patients.

Mayflower's Method of Treating Endometriosis
Extensive Diagnosis
Before any surgery is planned, we map your disease precisely. At Mayflower, specialist endometriosis ultrasound and MRI are interpreted by radiologists who understand the subtleties of deep infiltrating disease - including bowel, bladder, and ureteric involvement that general imaging regularly misses. For international patients, this diagnostic step can be partially completed before travel - giving you a clear surgical roadmap before your arrival in Ahmedabad.
Meticulous Surgical Precision
We do not perform endometriosis surgery the way a general gynaecologist performs it. Every procedure is guided by the M.E. Protocol - a structured pre-surgical map that accounts for every area of potential disease before the first incision is made. The result is complete excision, not partial treatment that brings temporary relief and brings you back to the operating table in two years.
Multidisciplinary Team Approach
For complex DIE involving the bowel or urinary tract, a single specialist is not enough. At Mayflower, our surgical team for these cases includes endometriosis specialists, a GI surgeon, and uro-surgeons operating together in one procedure. This coordination means fewer complications, shorter operating time, and a more complete result - all in a single surgical admission that fits within your travel window.
Perioperative & Post-Return Care
Your recovery begins in the operating theatre and continues long after you fly home. We manage pain carefully from the moment you wake up, provide physiotherapy before discharge, and maintain teleconsultation follow-up after your return. We also communicate with your local gynaecologist if required - ensuring continuity of care wherever you are in the world.

Frequently Asked Questions
Surgery is generally recommended when hormonal treatments have failed to control your symptoms, your pain significantly impacts your quality of life, endometriosis is affecting your fertility, or imaging suggests deep infiltrating disease involving the bowel, bladder, or ureter. If you have had a previous surgery and your symptoms have returned, excision surgery at a specialist centre - rather than repeat ablation - is strongly worth considering. Share your reports with us for a consultation.
Complete excision - the surgical removal of all endometriotic tissue - gives the best long-term outcomes and lowest recurrence rates. Ablation burns the surface of lesions but leaves the disease behind, which is why recurrence rates after ablation are high. At Mayflower, we perform excision surgery exclusively, guided by the Butterfly Peritonectomy and Rule of M protocols. Our observed recurrence rate is less than 2%.
The cost of endometriosis surgery at Mayflower depends on the stage and complexity of your disease - whether bowel resection, ureteric dissection, or additional procedures are required. As a general reference, comprehensive endometriosis excision surgery in India typically costs 60 to 80% less than equivalent surgery in Canada, the UK, the USA, or the UAE. We provide a transparent, itemised cost estimate after reviewing your medical reports - before you commit to travelling.
Yes - and thousands of women do every year. Endometriosis surgery does not require a long hospital stay. Most patients are discharged within two to three days. We recommend remaining in Ahmedabad for approximately seven to ten days post-operatively before flying, to allow for initial recovery and any required follow-up. We provide full travel planning guidance as part of your treatment package.
Mayflower's international package covers your pre-travel consultation, diagnostic workup, surgery, anaesthesia, nursing care, post-operative physiotherapy, and teleconsultation follow-up after you return home. Non-clinical support includes a dedicated case manager, medical visa assistance, and optional add-ons such as airport transfers, executive room accommodation, translator services, attendant meals, extended-stay coordination, and sightseeing support for companions. Your single point of contact manages all of this from your first enquiry through to discharge and beyond.
Most international patients plan for approximately 10 to 14 days in Ahmedabad. This covers arrival consultation and pre-surgical workup (2 to 3 days), surgery and hospital stay (~3 days), and initial recovery before flying (5 to 7 days). We provide a personalised timeline after reviewing your case.
India - and Mayflower specifically - is an excellent option for deep infiltrating endometriosis, including cases involving the bowel, bladder, ureter, and diaphragm. These are precisely the cases where most centres worldwide refer out or decline to operate. Our multidisciplinary team manages the full complexity of DIE in a single procedure, with outcomes that compare favourably with those of leading centres globally.

Living with endometriosis does not have to mean living in constant pain, accepting failed treatments, or being told there is nothing more that can be done. Women from Canada, the UK, the US and over 26 countries have travelled to Mayflower and found the lasting relief they were searching for.
Book online consultation and share your reports with us. We will review your case, give you a personalised surgical plan, and provide a transparent cost estimate - before you make any decision about travelling. There is no obligation. Just clarity.
