intramyometrial Terlipressin injection in women undergoing open myomectomy procedure using haemostatic tourniquets. (After the uterus has been reached, the Foley's urethral catheter will be adapted as a uterine tourniquet and will be applied at the base of the uterus before enucleating the fibroid masses. intramural Terlipressin will be injected, and then the uterine incision is done and the surgeon can now separate out the fibroids with ease and then amount of blood loss is calculated)
