Avoid Hysterectomy for Fibroids - Get a Second Opinion!
What Is UFE?
Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) is a safe, non-surgical procedure that blocks the blood supply to fibroids, causing them to shrink naturally and disappear over time.
No need for a myomectomy or hysterectomy — avoid the risks, pain, and long recovery time of traditional surgeries.
Why UFE?
Permanent Relief: UFE eliminates fibroids without surgery.
Quick Recovery: Less pain and a faster recovery compared to traditional fibroid surgeries.
Feel Better Fast: Relief from symptoms can begin in just one month.

End Fibroid Bleeding
Permanently!
What Is UFE?
Uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) is a safe and effective non-surgical procedure that eliminates fibroids permanently. Many women are only made aware of surgical options for fibroid treatment by their OB/GYN, but myomectomy and hysterectomy can be avoided!
The recovery from UFE is much less painful and substantially shorter than after having a hysterectomy. Relief from symptoms can begin as soon as one month after uterine fibroid embolization. When the growths are eliminated, the symptoms subside, and you gain a better quality of life.
