More info on embolization as a treatment for fibroids From: Susan (anonymous@obgyn.net) Mon, 9 Nov 1998 05:51:31 -0600 (CST) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Nandy: "Should I be worried.... about my menstruation?" Previous message: Susan: "Re: embolization-Houston doctor" In reply to: Helen: "Fibroids: Picture of Fibroids; Treatment: Uterine Embolization...at UCLA" I have read a lot about fibroid embolization and it looks like a promising alternative to hysterectomy as a treatment for fibroids. I don't know why it hasn't gained more popularity, other than the fact that it is not performed by OBgyn's, who are the docs a woman naturally goes to for her fibroids, and they are perhaps still unfamiliar with it. Although it was started in this country at UCLA, I understand it is being done in more and more places around the country. Check these two websites for more info. http://www.fibroidcorner.com/ http://www.scvir.org/ -- Susan Next message: Nandy: "Should I be worried.... about my menstruation?"
