By the age of 50, 70% of women will have developed uterine fibroids at some point in their life. Even when symptoms seem manageable, uterine fibroids should not go untreated. Unlike other practices, VIVA offers a minimally invasive procedure with less pain and with a faster recovery time.

Symptoms:

The majority of women with uterine fibroids do not experience any serious symptoms. However, when symptoms do present themselves, they can include:

• Painful periods paired with heavy bleeding
• A full feeling and/or noticeable enlargement in the pelvic area
• Urinating frequently
• Pain during sex
• Lower back pain
• UF can cause complications during pregnancy and labor
• Reproductive complications such as infertility or repeated miscarriages

Setting up an appointment with your doctor for a screening can determine whether you need treatment for this condition. Diagnostic imaging such as ultrasound, MRI, X-Ray, and CT scans can aid in identifying uterine fibroids.
