Hi,
I am cosidering having the treatment of uterine fibroid embolisation.
As you wrote, you underwent this procedure 10 years ago.
Could you tell something about the outcomes?
How are your fibroids now? What about their size? Did they regrow?
Sorry for mistakes, but I am not a native speaker of English ....
I would be grateful for any comments ...
