When it comes to uterine fibroids, size is only one part of the clinical picture. A large fibroid may not require treatment if it remains symptom-free, while a smaller fibroid can significantly affect quality of life depending on its location and the symptoms it produces. Factors such as heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, pressure on surrounding organs, fertility concerns, and distortion of the uterine cavity all play an important role in determining the most appropriate treatment. Performed through a tiny incision in the groin, Uterine Fibroid Embolisation (UFE) is a minimally invasive treatment that can be considered for women whose fibroids are affecting their quality of life.
