Is UFE Right For Me?

Learn if Non-Surgical Treatment of Fibroids is for You

If you’ve been diagnosed with fibroid tumors, you may be deciding what treatment is best for you is UFE or Uterine Fibroid Embolization. Uterine Fibroid Embolization is the treatment of choice for all our patients. This is a non-surgical removal of fibroids. It treats all fibroids at once, avoids the removal of the uterus, requires no hospital stay, and offers a short recovery period. You’re a good candidate for the procedure if you are presently having:

• Symptomatic fibroids that disrupt your daily activities/life.
• Want to keep your uterus.
• Do not want any surgery.
• Cannot have surgery due to medical issues.
• Need to reduce time away from work and family.
• Not considering pregnancy a top priority.

If you think you may be a good candidate for Uterine Fibroid Embolization, Dr. Handley and our North Texas Fibroid staff are here to help answer any questions or concerns. Use our UFE checklist to see if you are a good candidate for a UFE.
