UFE
Many women diagnosed with fibroids believe that a hysterectomy is the only way to rid themselves of the pain of fibroids. Uterine Fibroid Embolization is a fibroid treatment option that removes or eliminates fibroids while preserving the uterus.
UFE is a non-surgical option where a catheter is inserted to deliver embolic agents to the artery that feeds the fibroids, causing them to shrink and eventually die. This procedure is a safe and effective alternative to hysterectomy and myomectomy, with a shorter recovery time and fewer risks and complications. UFE is becoming increasingly popular for women seeking relief from fibroid symptoms such as heavy bleeding, pelvic pain, and pressure. Thanks to UFE, you don’t have to choose between a pain-free life or keeping your uterus.
