Uterine Fibroids

Nearly 35% of premenopausal women experience debilitating symptoms related to uterine fibroids.

These symptoms include heavy menstrual bleeding, severe cramping, urinary frequency and pelvic pain. While these symptoms are not life threatening, they can be debilitating to the average woman and result in missed work, severe anemia and hospitalization.

Interventional Radiology provides a less invasive outpatient treatment option for patients with symptomatic uterine fibroids that provides symptomatic relief without the need for hospitalization or surgery.
