    Cn UFE shrine large fibriods ,how is the delivery done after the procedure?

      The fibroids die immediately after the procedure. Over the course of days-weeks the fibroids soften and shrink and they continue to "shrivel up" over time. Only 5% of people that undergo UFE will see anything come out. This is usually a temporary phenomenon that may last a couple of cycles and peter out. A similar process occurs for a woman who enters menopause. The fibroids will progressively die and shrink over time. They typically don't come out.

      No need to suffer with fibroids. Please look in to UFE. It is nonsurgical, outpatient and has a very high success rate (90%). Learn more at ATLii.com

      I will be having the UFE procedure next Thursday. I hope to have success with this procedure. I am tired of living with fibroids. I am to be in recovery 2 to 4 hours afterwards, and then I will be released. I wonder which route is best the groin or the wrist? I first thought wrist, but now I'm thinking groin.

    In the past I had an open Myonectomy, the fibroids came back. I enquired about embolization and the gynaecologist said that because I have multiple fibroids I will not be eligible for this procedure. I am yet the see the radiologist to confirm this due to Covid. Is this the case? I live in the UK and they only like to offer women the surgical route. Is this the case?

    • @Atlii
      @Atlii  3 года назад

      That's very incorrect information. First of all, the fibroids didn't "come back." These fibroids are the ones the Gyn didn't/couldn't remove. That's one of the biggest problems with myomectomy (i.e. they leave living fibroids behind). By contrast, UFE typically knocks out ALL of the fibroids and the chance of needing any other procedure is much lower than myomectomy. In my opinion, there is never a reason to ever do a 2nd myomectomy. You're just setting yourself up for a 3rd procedure. Please look in to UFE. To learn more about UFE go to ATLii.com. Good luck.

      Atlanta Fibroid Center thank you for your response. I have been contacted by the UFE department and they said that I am eligible for the procedure which I will have very soon. I’m nervous but excited to know that these things will soon be gone.

    It depends on your health coverage which is sad

    • @Atlii
      @Atlii  4 года назад +1

      teresahen Not sure what you mean. UFE is covered by all insurances. There may be a deductible, and for some this amount is so high that they essentially can’t afford to use their health insurance. That is a very sad situation. Many people are unaware of what they sign up for when they purchase their health insurance. A very low premium is typically accompanied by a high deductible and if a patient can’t afford to cover the deductible, the insurance is rendered useless. This allowed bureaucrats to take credit for “insuring” more Americans to garner their votes but it is a sham.
