Uterine Artery Embolisation

Posted , 1 user is following.

Hello my name is Amanda and I'm 36 and Ive a large fibros on my uterus causing bladder problems and starting get craps too on and off the last 6 months . Ive had tests to confirm my large fibro. They said a safer choses would be a Uterine Artery Embolisation and I get to avoid a hysterectomy and taking the fibro out all together could be dangerous which could cause a hysterectomy.Ive two questions

1. Ladies can you tell me about the procedure and after the procedure?

2.Has any body a year later had a baby safely after the procedure? The doctor said after the procedure

It will lower my chances of having a baby . What does he mean ?

I have a daughter and if she's my only child I can except that . I'm single so if I was to have a baby in 3 years my fibro would be extremely large and maybe dangers

Thanks Amanda
