Uterine Fibroid Embolization
Uterine Fibroid Embolization at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Allen
It's a non surgical alternative to Hysterectomy

Less risk, and shorter recovery time versus a hysterectomy.

If you have fibroids and are suffering from heavy periods, pelvic pain, frequent urination, or bloating and constipation, you may be a candidate for Uterine Fibroid Embolization. Fibroids are tumors that grow from or within the wall of the uterus. And they are the leading cause of hysterectomies and myomectomies.*

Now, physicians on the medical staff at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Allen are offering a proven nonsurgical alternative called Uterine Fibroid Embolization.

Most women are discharged within 24 hours and back to normal activity in seven to 10 days. And it's covered by most insurance. If you have fibroids and want to find out if UFE is right for you, fill out the form to request more information.
