Whether RFA suits you depends on the size, position and number of fibroids, your symptoms and pregnancy plans. Very large or numerous fibroids, or fibroids that grow after menopause, may need surgery instead — the doctor compares the options after an ultrasound.
As the treated tissue breaks down, there may be temporary abdominal pain, a low fever or flu-like aches. Most patients return to daily life the next day.
