Fibroid Treatment without Surgery from Our Houston Fibroids Specialists

What are fibroids? Fibroids are generally non-cancerous growths that form in the uterus. Fibroid symptoms can include abdominal discomfort, heavy bleeding, bloating, and fertility challenges. These symptoms can affect your ability to perform everyday tasks, making finding a reliable and effective treatment option essential.

Uterine fibroid embolization, or UFE, is a minimally invasive procedure targeting the fibroids' blood supply. During the procedure, a small catheter is inserted into the blood vessels that supply the fibroids. Tiny particles are then injected into these blood vessels, inhibiting the transport of blood to the fibroids. This process causes the fibroids to shrink and alleviates the associated symptoms.

One of the significant advantages of UFE is that it is performed on an outpatient basis, so patients are discharged on the day of the treatment. This outpatient setting allows quicker recovery than traditional surgery.
