Fibroid Treatment in Brooklyn, NY on Flatbush

COMING SOON: Fibroid Treatment in Brooklyn, NY

If you are diagnosed with fibroids or experiencing symptoms, USA Fibroid Centers offers a non-surgical treatment called Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE). This innovative treatment can quickly alleviate your symptoms and get you back to living life to its fullest. 

While there are other fibroid treatments in Flatbush, NY available, most people with fibroids are not aware of the full range of options. Instead, many believe that hysterectomy, the complete surgical removal of the uterus, is the only solution. Our doctors aim to educate others on the effective, non-surgical treatment available that can preserve the uterus while eliminating painful, uncomfortable, and inconvenient symptoms and determine if our patients are candidates.

Uterine fibroids are a type of non-cancerous tumor that commonly grows in or on the uterus. Although not usually considered dangerous, Uterine Fibroids have the potential to cause harm to surrounding organs – and sometimes impact fertility. Individuals can develop a single fibroid or multiple fibroids, with sizes ranging from a tiny pea to weighing more than 20 pounds. 

The type, size, location, and number of fibroids impact which symptoms are involved, as well as their severity. Some never experience symptoms at all.

Symptoms of fibroids can include:

• Heavy or prolonged menstruation
• Anemia-induced fatigue
• Pelvic or lower back pain
• Constipation
• Stomach bloating
• Frequent urination
• Painful sexual intercourse
• Severe cramps or pelvic pressure

At USA Fibroid Centers, we recommend seeking fibroid treatment when symptoms interfere with your career, sex life, self-esteem, or social interactions. We are here to help you find relief from fibroids – experience our fibroid care experts and non surgical fibroid treatment at our Flatbush neighborhood (in the borough of Brooklyn, NY) fibroid treatment center.

Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) Fibroid Treatment in Brooklyn, NY

Uterine Fibroid Embolization is a less invasive, lower-risk, non-surgical treatment that leaves the uterus and ovaries intact. This FDA-approved, outpatient procedure offers a much shorter recovery time than surgery, with most women returning to normal activities in one to two weeks. Our interventional radiologists perform UFE procedures at our outpatient facility. 

Unlike other Brooklyn fibroid removal techniques, UFE:

• Takes between 30 and 45 minutes
• Locates fibroids using an advanced ultrasound method called fibroid mapping
• Uses light sedation instead of general anesthesia
• Involves only a small incision in your upper thigh

During the procedure, our specialists inject embolic through a tiny catheter into the uterine artery to block blood flow to the fibroids. Once cut off from blood flow and nutrients, the fibroid(s) shrinks eventually withers away. The injected material remains permanently in the blood vessels at the fibroid site, making it unlikely that the fibroid will regrow in the future. Afterwards, you will go home with only a small bandage on your incision. Stitches are not needed.

How UFE Compares to Other Uterine Fibroid Treatments
