After the procedure, we ask you to return to our office for routine follow-up in seven to 10 days. We also ask that you schedule an appointment to see your gynecologist in two to three weeks after the procedure for a routine gynecologic exam. Assuming that there are no problems or concerns after the follow-up visits, you will resume your normal gynecologic care and we will plan for follow-up MRI in six to nine months to assess the results of embolization and to insure that the blood supply to the fibroids is eliminated.
