How long does it take for fibroids to shrink post UFE?

Once UFE treatment is complete you can expect significant or total relief from fibroid-related symptoms from your first period, and within 2-3 months your lower abdomen will noticeably start to shrink along with your fibroids 🙌 However, just like each patient, each fibroid is different so the degree of shrinkage can vary. Even though fibroids treated by UFE don’t disappear, they will become inactive and reduce in size. 

If you’ve been diagnosed and would like to undergo permanent UFE treatment for fibroids, please visit our website www.fibroids.co.za or drop us a message online 🌸
