Why blood supply matters for fibroid growth

Think of fibroid blood supply as its lifeline. By cutting off this supply of nutrients and oxygen, the fibroids are caused to shrink and soften over time — a process that reduces symptoms like pelvic pain, bloating, and heavy bleeding. Uterine Fibroid Embolisation (UFE) applies this precise principle. This minimally invasive, pinhole procedure uses a tiny wrist incision to guide a microcatheter to the feeding vessels, where tiny particles are injected to block blood flow.
