like uterine fibroids hold you back? The short answer? They don’t have to. Studies on Nonsurgical Uterine Fibroids Treatment Ever since the treatment first appeared, uterine embolization has proven extremely effective. Studies have shown that uterine embolization is the preferred treatment to surgical methods such as hysterectomy or surgical fibroid removal. Research has shown that surgeons perform between 150,000 and 200,000 hysterectomies each year in the US. They can also cause serious complications like heavy menstrual bleeding, hematoma, bladder injury, and pelvic pain. While hysterectomies may be useful for treating some of the symptoms associated with uterine fibroids, is it worth the risk? We at USA Vascular Centers prefer uterine fibroid embolization as a nonsurgical treatment for uterine fibroids. It is safe, efficient, and can achieve just the same results as a hysterectomy without the need for surgery! Uterine Fibroid Embolization Procedure Our West Roxbury vascular surgeon can take care of you throughout your treatment, providing any advice or information you may require. The procedure for uterine embolization requires the surgeon to inject small pellets into the arteries to feed the fibroids. As they increase in size, they will cut off the blood supply to that artery and the fibroids. Fibroids are benign tumors, which cannot survive without a ready blood supply. Your fibroids will start to shrink relatively quickly and should have dramatically decreased in size after six weeks. However, you can expect relief from symptoms much earlier than this. Thousands of women undergo uterine fibroid embolization every year to great effect. In fact, around 90% of women who undergo treatment experience complete relief from their symptoms.
