Fibroids are non-cancerous masses in the uterus, but they can cause significant problems for many women.
Uterine Fibroids? Surgery Isn’t the Only Option!
Heavy periods, pelvic pain, bloating, frequent urination, and anemia may all be signs of uterine fibroids. While many women think surgery or hysterectomy is the only solution, there is a minimally invasive alternative called Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE).
UFE is a non-surgical procedure performed by an Interventional Radiologist. Through a tiny puncture, the blood supply to the fibroids is blocked, causing them to shrink and helping relieve symptoms.
Benefits of UFE:
- No major surgery or stitches
- Preserves the uterus
- Short hospital stay and faster recovery
- Effective relief from heavy bleeding and pain
- Quick return to normal activities
If fibroids are affecting your quality of life, ask your doctor about Uterine Fibroid Embolization a safe, effective, and uterus-preserving treatment option.
