A member asked:
Can uterine fibroid embolization affect fertility?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Some studies show an improvement in fertility after UFE but because definitive scientific data is lacking it is primarily done on women who have finished childbearing. It can be done on those who desire pregnancy with appropriate counseling. The size and location would be contributing factors.
