Treatment Options for Uterine Fibroids

Uterine fibroids are the most common, non-cancerous tumors. These growths affect more than 30% of women. Fibroids form in the uterine wall and most do not cause any symptoms or require treatment.

Fibroids that do have symptoms, may require treatment. Symptoms include:

  • Heavy menstrual bleeding
  • Painful periods
  • Pelvic pressure
  • Frequent urination
  • Pain during intercourse
  • Lower back pain

 

Our experts will discuss medical, surgical, and minimally invasive options for fibroids including:

  • Hysterectomy

  • Robot-assisted myomectomy or robotic myomectomy
  • Robot-assisted hysterectomy
