USA Fibroid Centers was recently featured as an expert source in a Verywell Health article, breaking down the critical facts about fibroid types and how they impact women’s health. Our fibroid specialists emphasize that the location of a fibroid—not just its presence—can trigger distinct symptoms, from heavy, prolonged periods to fertility struggles.
Though up to 80 percent of women develop fibroids by age 50, many have no symptoms or have simply normalized their pain. Yet, effective treatment to find relief is available.
The article highlights uterine fibroid embolization (UFE), a leading minimally invasive method we offer. UFE uses advanced medical imaging techniques and catheters to block blood flow to the fibroid, causing it to shrink. A study published in Diagnostics confirmed that UFE offers patients significant relief and improved quality of life.
