Uterine fibroids can cause considerable pain and pressure, and can limit your lifestyle. If you have been diagnosed with uterine fibroids and are considering a hysterectomy or other surgery, know that surgery may not be your only treatment option. Consider seeking a second opinion from a vascular specialist who can determine if you are a good candidate for uterine fibroid embolization, a minimally invasive procedure for treating uterine fibroids safely and effectively. Set up a consultation with a vascular specialist at Azura Vascular Care to discuss your fibroid treatment without surgery.
Watch and hear these two uterine fibroid embolization patient reviews and learn how the procedure improved their quality of life:
