Uterine Fibroid Embolization

Visit our section dedicated to this treatment

NEARLY 4 OUT OF 10 WOMEN AGED 35+ HAVE FIBROIDS OF SIGNIFICANT SIZE. “When it comes to treating Uterine Fibroids, there is a significant upside to embolization versus the common alternative of a hysterectomy. Embolization is a simple and safe procedure, offers a speedy recovery, and avoids the removal of your uterus. It’s a procedure that fixes the problem now while leaving options open for the future. It just makes sense.” – Dr. Véronique Caty
