Women's Health Month
Prioritizing Vascular Health for Women
May is Women's Health Month, a time to focus on the unique health challenges women face and the importance of proactive care. At Murfreesboro Vascular & Interventional, we are committed to helping women take control of their vascular health through advanced, minimally invasive treatments.
Why Vascular Health Matters for Women
Many women are unaware that vascular conditions can significantly impact their overall well-being. From chronic pelvic pain to varicose veins, vascular issues can lead to discomfort, decreased mobility, and even serious complications if left untreated. Fortunately, modern interventional radiology offers safe and effective treatment options that can greatly improve quality of life.
Common Vascular Conditions Affecting Women
At Murfreesboro Vascular & Interventional, we specialize in treating a variety of vascular conditions that disproportionately affect women, including:
1. Uterine Fibroids
Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths that develop in the uterus, often causing heavy periods, pelvic pain, and frequent urination. We offer Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE), a minimally invasive procedure that shrinks fibroids and alleviates symptoms without the need for surgery.
2. Pelvic Congestion Syndrome (PCS)
Chronic pelvic pain can sometimes be caused by varicose veins in the pelvic region, a condition known as Pelvic Congestion Syndrome. Our specialists perform pelvic vein embolization, a minimally invasive procedure that closes off problematic veins, relieving pain and discomfort.
3. Varicose & Spider Veins
Many women experience varicose or spider veins due to pregnancy, aging, or prolonged standing. These conditions can lead to pain, swelling, and cosmetic concerns. We offer treatments such as sclerotherapy, endovenous laser ablation (EVLA), and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) to improve circulation and restore confidence.
4. Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
Blood clots in deep veins, particularly in the legs, can be life-threatening if not addressed. Our specialists provide minimally invasive DVT treatments, including catheter-directed thrombolysis, to restore blood flow and reduce the risk of complications.
5. Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD)
Women with PAD may experience leg pain, cramping, or difficulty walking due to narrowed arteries. We offer advanced treatments such as angioplasty and stenting to improve circulation and mobility.
