About Fibroid Fighters
As a public welfare organization dedicated to the education and research of uterine fibroids, The Fibroid Fighters Foundation has partnered with political leaders, public figures, activists, and fibroid survivors to spread the word about uterine fibroid disease. We're on a mission to end the silence and stigma that surrounds women's health, specifically the reproductive health issue of fibroids.
Fibroids impact 1 in 3 women, but despite how common this disease is, often the only treatment offered for symptomatic fibroids is hysterectomy. Whether partial or complete, hysterectomy comes with multiple drawbacks, including but not limited to the loss of fertility.
A part of the Fibroid Fighters Foundation mission includes bringing awareness to the minimally invasive fibroid treatment option known as Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE). UFE is an FDA-approved treatment for fibroids that involves embolizing the arteries that connect the fibroid tumors to the blood supply.
