Why Choose Uterine Fibroid Embolization Over Other Treatments?
UFE offers significant advantages over traditional surgical options for many women:
Minimally Invasive: Forget large incisions and a lengthy hospital stay. UFE is performed through a tiny incision, typically in the wrist or groin, as an outpatient procedure. You can often go home the same day.
Preserves the Uterus: Unlike hysterectomy, UFE allows you to keep your uterus, which is a significant consideration for many women.
Faster Recovery: Patients generally experience a much quicker return to their daily activities compared to surgery like myomectomy or hysterectomy.
Effective Symptom Relief: By cutting off the blood supply to the fibroids, UFE effectively shrinks them, leading to substantial and lasting relief from heavy bleeding, pain, and pressure.
No General Anesthesia in Many Cases: The procedure can often be performed with conscious sedation, reducing risks associated with general anesthesia.
Addresses All Fibroids: UFE can treat all fibroids present, even small ones, during a single procedure, unlike myomectomy which often targets only the largest or most problematic ones.
