Shrinking Without Surgery: Uterine Fibroid Embolization Stories

Inside this volume

Fifty first-person accounts describe finding the procedure, often by their own research after surgery-only consultations: the groin-or-wrist catheter day, the notorious first seventy-two hours of post-embolization pain and how each writer weathered them, periods lightening across months, bulk symptoms deflating, and energy returning with corrected anemia. Writers include the fibroids that shrank insufficiently and led to surgery anyway, fertility questions handled with nuance, and the pointed chapters about why nobody mentioned UFE sooner.

Who it's for

For anyone weighing fibroid options beyond hysterectomy, scheduled for embolization and bracing for the early days, or advocating for the referral no one offered.
