While many women develop fibroids, not all require surgery to treat these noncancerous uterine growths. But if your uterine fibroids are causing significant disruption to your well-being, surgery may offer the best outcome possible.
What are uterine fibroids?
Uterine fibroids are noncancerous tumors that grow in your uterus and can range in size from very small to about the size of a grapefruit. These growths affect about 35 million American women. For approximately 7 million of these women, fibroids cause troublesome symptoms that necessitate medical care.
Symptoms of uterine fibroids include:
Low back pain
Heavy bleeding
Pain during sex
Bloating
Frequent urination
Complications with fertility, pregnancy, and labor
Fibroids are especially problematic for women over 35 and older and black women, who have a much greater likelihood of developing the growths.
What surgeries are available for treating fibroids?
Depending on your symptoms and the risks your fibroids pose to your health and well-being, different treatments are available, ranging from minimally invasive procedures to invasive surgeries. These include:
Uterine artery embolization: This procedure cuts off blood supply to the fibroids, causing them to shrink.
Myolysis: A procedure to destroy fibroids using targeted energy.
Myomectomy and hysteroscopic myomectomy: Surgical procedures to remove the fibroids.
Endometrial ablation: A procedure to destroy the lining of the uterus and stop fibroid growth.
Acessa: A laparoscopic procedure that uses radiofrequency ablation to destroy fibroid tissue.
Hysterectomy: Surgery that removes the uterus completely.
Other treatment options may be available based on your unique needs and symptoms.
