Orange Coast Memorial Medical Center Uterine Fibroid Embolization

 

Uterine Fibroid EmbolizationUterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) is a safe and effective alternative to surgery.
A non-surgical, uterus sparing treatment, UFE blocks the blood supply to the fibroids causing them to shrink. UFE is clinically proven to be successful in reducing the major symptoms of fibroids, including pain, excessive and prolonged bleeding, and frequent urination. UFE is “minimally invasive,” requiring only a small incision in the skin. The procedure lasts approximately two hours, and most patients are back to work within one to two weeks.
