Uterine fibroids are benign (non-cancerous) tumors of the uterus, ranging in size from as small as a grape to as large as a cantaloupe that can cause heavy periods, painful periods, urinary difficulties, bloating, and abdominal and pelvic pain.
Uterine fibroids are common, affecting 20-40% of all women over age 35. The incidence is significantly higher in Black women, with studies showing that 80% of Black women will develop fibroids by age 50. Additionally, Black women tend to develop fibroids at an earlier age, experience more severe symptoms, and have larger and more numerous fibroids.
UFE is a minimally invasive and highly effective outpatient approach for treating fibroids that does not require traditional treatment options such as hormone treatment, hysterectomy (surgical removal of the uterus), or myomectomy (surgical removal of fibroids).
UFE may not be the best choice for all patients. Your doctor can help you decide which treatment may be right for you.
