Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) In Bengaluru
Whether it's heavy bleeding, pelvic pain or the constant feeling of pressure, people dealing with uterine fibroids can struggle with all sorts of symptoms. But the good news is that there's a treatment for this that doesn't involve surgery, long hospital stay or weeks of recovery and it's called Uterine Fibroid Embolization or UFE for short. If you or someone you know is looking for uterine fibroid embolization in Bengaluru, Karnataka, then get in touch with Dr Basavaraj Biradar, a highly qualified Interventional Radiologist.
So, What Exactly Is UFE?
UFE is a minimally invasive procedure done by an Interventional Radiologist. It is done using a tiny catheter, which is used to navigate through the arteries and block the blood supply to these fibroids, effectively shrinking them and easing symptoms.
UFE is preferred over other methods because it involves no big incisions, no general anaesthesia and no uterus removal.
Why Is UFE Treatment Done?
UFE is primarily done to treat symptomatic uterine fibroids (non-cancerous growths in the uterus). While some fibroids cause no issues at all, others bring along symptoms such as heavy menstrual bleeding, prolonged periods, pelvic pressure, frequent urination and even pain during intercourse. Here's where UFE comes in.
Instead of removing the fibroids surgically, UFE cuts off their blood supply, causing them to shrink and symptoms to ease.
UFE is usually recommended if you:
- Want to avoid surgery such as a hysterectomy or myomectomy
- Are not planning to conceive or are past childbearing age
- Have multiple fibroids that are hard to remove surgically
- Prefer a minimally invasive alternative with quicker recovery
- Are experiencing severe symptoms
Why Women Choose UFE?
One of the most common reactions we get from our patients post-op is "I wish I had known about this treatment earlier", and we completely get it. Uterine fibroids are incredibly common and yet people see surgery as the only option. But here's the thing. UFE is uterus-sparing, which essentially means your uterus stays intact.
Some benefits of UFE include:
- Shorter recovery time
- No surgical scars
- High success rate in reducing symptoms
- A same-day or overnight hospital stay
- Uterus preservation
During UFE
Once you've had a consultation with us, we will confirm your diagnosis through imaging. On the day of the procedure, you remain awake but sedated. A tiny incision will be made near the groin or wrist, which will allow us to thread a catheter into the uterine arteries. We then release tiny particles that block the fibroid's blood supply.
What to Expect After the Procedure?
Recovery after UFE is typically smooth and fast; in fact, most women:
- Stay just one night in the hospital or go home the same day
- Are able to go back to normal routine within a week
And the best part is that the relief often comes quickly. Most patients report a reduction in symptoms within 3 to 6 months, along with improved energy and overall quality of life.
