Non-Surgical Fibroid Solution
UFE is 90% effective without the need for a Hysterectomy
Reclaim Your Freedom with UFE
Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) offers a minimally invasive approach to treating uterine fibroids, providing a safe and highly effective alternative to major surgical procedures like hysterectomy and myomectomy. UFE is designed to preserve the integrity of the uterus while delivering substantial relief to women dealing with fibroid-related symptoms, including heavy bleeding, severe cramps, and frequent urination. Approximately 90-95% of women who opt for UFE witness substantial improvements in their fibroid symptoms. Notably, for those who aspire to start a family in the future, and have been told that they need a hysterectomy, UFE presents a low-risk pathway to relief, eliminating the need for invasive surgery while preserving fertility.
