Are you suffering from heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, or fertility issues? You could be experiencing symptoms of uterine fibroids.
Dr. Ravjit Singh Sagoo, a leading specialist in diagnostic and interventional radiology in Kenya, offers safe, effective, and minimally invasive fibroids treatment to help you reclaim your health and well-being.
Fibroids Treatment Options in Kenya
Dr. Ravjit Singh Sagoo specializes in non-surgical, image-guided procedures, as well as collaborating with gynecologists for surgical interventions when needed.
✅ Minimally Invasive Treatments:
Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE)
This is a cutting-edge, non-surgical treatment performed by Dr. Sagoo. UFE blocks the blood flow to fibroids, causing them to shrink over time. Benefits include:No major surgery
Short recovery time
Preservation of the uterus
Relief from symptoms within weeks
✅ Medication Management:
Hormonal therapy to control symptoms like heavy bleeding or pain.
✅ Surgical Options (in partnership with gynecology specialists):
Myomectomy – Fibroid removal with uterus preservation
Hysterectomy – Removal of uterus in severe cases
Laparoscopic/Robotic Surgery – Minimally invasive surgical procedures
Dr. Sagoo will guide you through each option based on your medical history, age, symptoms, and reproductive goals.
What Are Uterine Fibroids?
Uterine fibroids, also known as leiomyomas or myomas, are non-cancerous tumors that grow within or on the uterus. They are common among women of reproductive age, especially in African populations.
Types of fibroids include:
Intramural fibroids – within the muscular uterine wall
Submucosal fibroids – inside the uterine cavity
Subserosal fibroids – outside the uterine wall
Pedunculated fibroids – attached to the uterus by a stalk
Symptoms of Fibroids
Some fibroids may not cause symptoms, but when they do, you might experience:
Heavy or prolonged menstrual periods
Pelvic pain or pressure
Abdominal swelling or bloating
Frequent urination
Constipation
Painful intercourse
Difficulty conceiving
If you’re experiencing any of the above, it’s important to seek a professional diagnosis and explore treatment options.
