Fibroid treatment is an important choice for many women. A study published found that UFE in Houston was a safe and effective treatment for fibroids, with a low risk of complications. However, there are a few risks associated with UFE: bleeding, infection, non-target embolization (when the fibroid treatment accidentally gets lodged somewhere else), and damage to other structures. These risks are minimal and can be managed by your doctor. After the procedure done by Access Vascular Health, you may experience post-embolization syndrome, which is characterized by fatigue, nausea, vomiting, and low-grade fevers that are an inflammatory reaction to the procedure. This can be successfully managed by analgesics and anti-nausea medication. This usually subsides in 1-2 days. You may also experience increased pain immediately after the procedure where you may experience increased pain and cramping following the procedure due to the embolization process itself—this can often be successfully managed with painkillers.
