Uterine fibroids are benign tumors of the uterus and affect up to 80% of women.

Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) is a safe, non-surgical treatment that eliminates fibroids by blocking their blood supply, causing the fibroids to shrink.

Benefits of UFE include:

• No surgery
• General anesthesia not typically required
• Faster recovery compared to myomectomy or hysterectomy
• Typically a one night hospital stay after the procedure
• Covered by most health insurance plans

CLINICAL STUDIES SHOW THAT UFE PROVIDES SUBSTANTIAL IMPROVEMENT IN MAJOR SYMPTOMS, INCLUDING PELVIC PAIN AND DISCOMFORT, HEAVY MENSTRUAL BLEEDING, AND URINARY PROBLEMS.

OF WOMEN REPORT IMPROVEMENT IN SEXUAL FUNCTION, INCLUDING PAIN, DESIRE, AROUSAL AND SATISFACTION YEAR FOLLOWING UFE.

UFE IS OFTEN A GOOD OPTION FOR WOMEN WHO NEED TREATMENT FOR FIBROID SYMPTOMS, BUT WANT TO AVOID A HYSTERECTOMY.

What Women Are Saying About UFE

"Life is so much more full, happy, and wonderful since I've had UFE. I have a lot of energy. I get to go out with my friends and enjoy life like I did before I had fibroids." — Gwen

"My experience with UFE was very positive. When I was trying to seek treatment in other places I just felt like I was being dismissed. I oftentimes felt like it was my fault that I had fibroids. That I was wasting people's time because I was trying to figure out what I was going to do." — Carmen

"A hysterectomy should not be a first choice unless it's medically necessary. UFE is minimally invasive and I only needed one procedure. Above all, it gave me back my life." — Shelly
