Dr. McLucas:
The absolute definite answer to the question of "Is hysterectomy the only alternative for fibroids?" is no. Uterine artery embolization is a much less invasive, less disfiguring, less time-consuming, and less risky alternative to a hysterectomy; for women who want to keep a really healthy uterus and just shrink it down to normal size by shrinking the fibroids that are causing it to be big.
