Painless Fibroid Treatments for Women: Why Uterine Artery Embolization Is Gaining Popularity in India
Uterine fibroids are one of the most common health concerns among women in India, often causing heavy bleeding, pelvic pain, fatigue, and fertility issues. While surgery was once the standard treatment, women today prefer painless, minimally invasive solutions that fit their lifestyle and recovery needs. At Clinic Seven, Hyderabad,Dr. Nagateja, Interventional Radiologist, offers Uterine Artery Embolization (UAE)—a safe, effective, and stitch-free procedure that is rapidly gaining popularity across India.

Understanding Uterine Fibroids and Their Impact
Uterine fibroids are benign growths inside or around the uterus. They vary in size and can cause symptoms such as prolonged periods, pelvic pressure, back pain, and urinary frequency. Many women hesitate to seek treatment due to fear of surgery or long recovery times.
Interventional Radiology provides a modern alternative. With UAE, women can treat fibroids without removing the uterus and without undergoing open or laparoscopic surgery—making it ideal for today’s lifestyle and comfort expectations.
What Is Uterine Artery Embolization (UAE)?
UAE is a minimally invasive treatment where a thin catheter is inserted through a tiny pinhole in the wrist or groin. Under real-time imaging, this catheter reaches the blood vessels supplying the fibroid. Small embolic particles are then released to block the blood flow, causing the fibroid to shrink naturally over time.
The entire procedure takes about 45–60 minutes, and most women return home the same day. Because there are no large cuts or stitches, UAE is considered one of the most comfortable fibroid treatments available today.
Why UAE Is Becoming Popular in India
Across India, more women are choosing UAE because it balances effectiveness and comfort. It eliminates the fear of surgical pain and long hospitalization while offering excellent symptom relief.
Key reasons for its rising popularity include:
- Pinhole access instead of surgical cuts
- Minimal pain and faster recovery
- Preserves the uterus
- Short hospital stay usually same-day discharge
- Suitable for multiple or large fibroids
UAE empowers women with a safe, effective, and convenient alternative to hysterectomy and myomectomy.
Symptoms That UAE Can Help Treat
UAE is effective for women experiencing:
- Heavy menstrual bleeding
- Severe period cramps
- Pelvic pressure or bloating
- Frequent urination due to pressure on the bladder
- Pain during intercourse
- Chronic fatigue from blood loss
By shrinking fibroids, UAE helps restore comfort, confidence, and quality of life.
How UAE Compares to Traditional Surgery
Traditional fibroid surgeries like hysterectomy or myomectomy involve general anaesthesia, visible incisions, hospital stay, and longer recovery. UAE offers a gentler alternative with excellent outcomes.
Key differences include:
- No removal of uterus
- No large scars
- Lower complication rates
- Return to work within days
- Less blood loss
For many women in Hyderabad and across India, UAE fits their health goals without disrupting daily routine.
Recovery After UAE: What Patients Can Expect
One of the biggest advantages of UAE is the quick and comfortable recovery. Most women resume daily activities within a few days. Mild cramping or fatigue may occur, but medication helps ease discomfort.
Follow-up imaging helps track fibroid shrinkage and symptom improvement. Many women report better energy levels, lighter periods, and reduced pelvic pressure within weeks.
