Helping Women Live Fibroid Free Is Our Passion
Uterine fibroids can cause painful and life-altering symptoms for many women. At Fibroid Institute Texas—with fibroid treatment clinic locations in the Dallas and Houston areas—we don’t believe you ought to decide between suffering in silence or having a hysterectomy. That is why we are dedicated to treating fibroids using Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE), the gold standard in non-surgical fibroid treatment.
About Fibroid Institute
What We Do
Helping you live fibroid free and get back to your life quickly and with less pain is at the heart of what we do. We treat fibroids using Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE), which blocks blood flow to the fibroids and causes them to shrink. As a nonsurgical procedure, UFE:
- Is less risky
- Doesn’t require large incisions
- Is done outside of a hospital
- Has a shorter recovery time
- Keeps your uterus intact
