Benefits Of UFE
Safer procedure
UFE is a minimally invasive procedure with fewer complications compared to surgery.
Intact uterus
The uterus remains untouched, making UFE a uterus-sparing treatment.
No general anesthesia
UFE is performed under light sedation, avoiding the risks of general anesthesia.
4-5 days of recovery
Most patients return to normal activities within just a few days.
Retains fertility
UFE helps preserve fertility by avoiding surgical removal of reproductive organs.
Covered by most insurances
UFE is widely accepted by insurance providers, making it accessible and affordable.
UFE is covered by most insurance plans
When performed by the Atlanta Fibroid Center®, your portion of financial responsibility will be dependent on the coverage provided by your specific insurance plan. Please contact our office to verify if your insurance plan covers UFE.
