When comparing Gurgaon packages for pelvic reconstructive surgery, check whether each quote includes:

• Surgeon and anaesthetist fees
• Operating theatre or procedure room
• Laboratory tests on removed tissue
• Hospital stay and room category

• Follow-up visits before you fly home

Pelvic reconstructive surgery repairs and supports the pelvic organs, including the bladder, womb or bowel, when they have dropped into the vagina (pelvic organ prolapse).

The NHS says that surgery is an option for more severe prolapse, to lift and support the pelvic organs, after pelvic floor exercises, lifestyle changes and vaginal pessaries have commonly been tried, with the decision taking account of age, health and plans for children.

Operations include front or back wall repair, vaginal hysterectomy for prolapse of the womb, and sacrocolpopexy or sacrohysteropexy to support the upper end of the vagina or the womb.

Recovery normally means avoiding heavy lifting for a number of weeks, and risks include bleeding, infection, bladder or bowel issues, pain during sex and the prolapse coming back.

The NHS points out that vaginal mesh is no longer used in the NHS unless there is no alternative, so it is worth asking whether mesh is planned.

Flying home: there is no aviation figure for this procedure, so book after the surgeon's review and ask how to lower clot risk on a long flight.

A Gurgaon quote for pelvic reconstructive surgery is normally made up of these items:

• Type of operation: open, keyhole or robotic where there is a choice.
• Repair: front, back or upper end of the vagina.
• Approach: vaginal or keyhole.

Gurgaon is part of Delhi NCR, where India's first hospital to gain Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation did so in 2005, and JCI publishes a searchable list of the organisations it currently accredits.

Gurgaon was officially renamed Gurugram by the Haryana government in 2016, so hospital letters, maps and taxi apps may use either name.
