Uterine Fibroid Removal Experiences?

Re: Uterine Fibroid Removal Experiences?

Op I don’t know if this procedure is an option for u but a few months ago I had come across an article once about a non invasive procedure for removing fibroids and I looked it up again and found it. It’s called uterine fibroid embolisation, where they go in through the femoral artery in the upper thigh/groin area and block off the blood supply to the fibroid so it just shrinks on its own and dies. Here’s the link

Again, I haven’t done much research on it so I don’t know if ur talking about something similar or if they can do this on all fibroids. Since its no incision and no down time, I’m guessing rs worth a read. They were talking about Alain hospital in UAE but they probably do it everywhere.

^ Thanks Sasha! I had already discussed with this my dr. and based on what he told me + my own research…this didn’t seem like a good option for me since I want to do everything possible to keep the option of pregnancy open for the future (I don’t have any kids).

Looks like I’m going with robotic myomectomy.
