Q: Can a Uterine Fibroid Embolisation treat Cysts?⁣

A: Unfortunately not. Ovarian Cysts are often confused with fibroids as they share many of the same symptoms, however, they are not the same thing. 

Here’s why:⁣

👉 Ovarian Cysts are fluid filled sacs that usually develop during ovulation and form on the ovaries, as well as many other areas of the body.

👉 Uterine Fibroids are non-cancerous muscular growths that occur only within the walls of the uterus.⁣
