Non-Surgical Fibroid Treatment in Bushwick, NY 

At our outpatient medical clinic on Knickerbocker Avenue in Bushwick, our doctors treat fibroids using a non-surgical procedure called uterine fibroid embolization (UFE). Also known as uterine artery embolization, or UAE, this outpatient procedure can help you start living a life free from fibroid symptoms. 

If you live in Brooklyn and are looking for a safe, convenient solution for uterine fibroid symptoms, count on the caring doctors at USA Fibroid Centers in Bushwick to help you start feeling better. 

Understanding Fibroid Symptoms

Uterine fibroids are benign tumors that can develop anywhere on or in the uterus, including in the uterine lining. 

A woman can have one fibroid or multiple, and they can range from the size of a blueberry to watermelon-sized. Very large fibroids can enlarge the uterus and fill the abdomen, leading to immense swelling, pressure, and pain. 

Because some types of fibroids form within the uterus, they can also impact your period, causing severe cramping and excessive bleeding. They can also lead to pelvic or lower back pain if they push on nearby organs or tissues. 

Other symptoms you might notice if you have fibroids include:

The type, size, location, and number of fibroids can impact which symptoms occur.

Treating Fibroids with Uterine Fibroid Embolization 

UFE works by shrinking the fibroids. During an embolization, the blood supply to the tumors is cut off, starving them of the oxygen and nutrients they need to survive. As a result, they start to diminish in size, which leads to significant symptom relief. In fact, after UFE, some women have minimal to no symptoms after the procedure and remain symptom-free for decades. UFE also leaves the uterus intact, so you don’t have to worry about complications that would impact your fertility.

If you’re concerned about the type of treatment your doctor has offered or want a second opinion, consult with our doctors to find out all the options available to you. 

At USA Fibroid Centers, we have seen the success rate of UFE for our patients in the 98% range. We credit this to our doctors’ focus on this treatment and diagnosis of each individual patient to ensure they are a candidate. Combine their expertise with our state-of-the-art, AAAHC-accredited facility, we offer the Bushwick area of Brooklyn a proven option for fibroid treatment outside of invasive options like a hysterectomy.

How UFE Compares to Other Uterine Fibroid Treatments

UFE works by cutting off the blood supply to any existing fibroids. Because it addresses all of your fibroids at once, you can get lasting relief with one procedure. It’s also effective for treating large fibroids, which is why so many women prefer it to surgical options and other treatments.

Here’s a look at how UFE compares to myomectomy, hysterectomy, Acessa, and other treatments for fibroids.
