Uterine fibroids are the most common type of abnormal growth in the uterus. Although fibroids are benign, or non-cancerous, their symptoms and side effects can include pelvic pain, heavy bleeding and infertility.
Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) is a safe, highly effective, minimally invasive vascular procedure that blocks blood flow to the uterine fibroids. This causes the fibroids to shrink or resolve, resulting in a life-changing reduction in symptoms.
