Will UFE Treat All Fibroids
Will Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) Treat All My Fibroids?
Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) serves as a less invasive option compared to procedures like hysterectomy or myomectomy. Typically conducted in an outpatient setting, UFE entails no hospital stay and boasts a shorter recovery time. Many women undergoing this procedure witness a significant improvement in symptoms and a reduction in the size of their uterine fibroids. After UFE, menstrual flow often returns to a more typical pattern, especially if previously heavy.
One of the notable advantages of UFE is its ability to focus on numerous fibroids within the uterus, including tiny nodules that might not be detectable through diagnostic tests. Studies have shown that fibroids treated with UFE don’t typically regenerate, and if they do, the growth tends to be slow and unlikely to cause annoying symptoms. This effectiveness makes UFE superior to many other fibroid treatments.
UFE is FDA approved and it has been recognition as a safe and efficient treatment option by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG). Remarkably, up to 92% of patients experience significant relief from fibroid-related symptoms following UFE.
