Uterine Artery Embolization.

[Guest guest]

Happy New Year Ladies! I hope you all have a great New Year!

On November 17th, I had the UAE process done on me. Two days later, I

experienced my period which to my glee was not as heavy as before the

procedure. I thought that would be the same case for the month of

December, but I am experiencing heavy bleeding but not as really

really heavy with the clots as before.

My question is...how long did it take for those who experienced the

UAE process to see noticable improvement in terms of the bleeding and

any other symptoms?

I return to the doctor in February 16 for a MRI to see how small the

fibroids have shrunk and was told they should by 50 percent during

the first 3 months. I have to go every 3 months for a year for a MRI

as followup.

Any comments would be very much so appreciated. God bless!
