Why Year-End Is Perfect for UFE Patients
Why Year‑End Is the Smartest Time to Treat Uterine Fibroids (Without Surgery)
If heavy periods, pelvic pressure, or frequent bathroom trips are disrupting your life, uterine fibroids could be the reason. Fibroids are non‑cancerous growths in the uterus that can cause anemia, pain, bloating, and fatigue. Many women are told hysterectomy is the only option—but it isn’t.
Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) is a minimally invasive, uterus‑sparing treatment performed by Dr. William Julien. Through a tiny needle puncture in the wrist or groin, we guide a catheter to the uterine arteries and block the fibroid’s blood supply. Patients go home the same day, recover in about a week, and keep their uterus.
Why now?
By late in the year, many women have already met their insurance deductibles, which can significantly reduce out‑of‑pocket costs. That makes now the ideal time to schedule your consult and, if appropriate, complete treatment before December 31.
At South Florida Vascular Associates (SFVA), we offer state‑of‑the‑art UFE in a comfortable outpatient setting. Dr. William Julien is a pioneer in embolization procedures and has performed thousands of UFE procedures with our experienced team.
