A Minimally Invasive Alternative to Fibroid Surgery
Preserves the Uterus
UAE treats fibroids without removing the uterus, making it an excellent option for many women.
No Major Incision
The procedure is performed through a tiny puncture in the wrist or groin, with no large cuts or stitches.
Faster Recovery
Most women return to normal activities within one to two weeks, much sooner than after traditional surgery.
Effective Symptom Relief
UAE helps reduce heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, pressure symptoms, and frequent urination caused by fibroids.
Multiple Fibroids Treated Together
Unlike surgery that may remove selected fibroids, UAE can treat multiple fibroids in a single procedure.

Your top questions, answered
UAE is a minimally invasive procedure that blocks the blood supply to fibroids, causing them to shrink and relieving symptoms without removing the uterus.
For many women, UAE offers an effective alternative to surgery with smaller incisions, shorter recovery, and preservation of the uterus. The most appropriate treatment depends on individual circumstances.
Fibroids usually shrink significantly after UAE, leading to noticeable improvement in symptoms, although they may not disappear entirely.
The procedure generally takes 45–90 minutes and is performed under image guidance.
Some cramping is expected after the procedure, but it is usually well managed with medications during recovery.
Most women return to work and routine activities within 1–2 weeks, depending on individual recovery.
