"We made magic together - I'm fibroid free" Cynthia Bailey-Hill, opens up about her fibroid journey and UFE, alongside Dr. John Lipman.

ATLANTA, GEORGIA, USA, August 4, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Live on July 29, 2022 at an on-site Power Up Summit, (July 27-31, 2022), hosted from Biloxi, Mississippi, was created and hosted by Founder, Kearn Cherry for women across the world. While at the transformative summit, Cherry led and moderated a roundtable discussion on uterine fibroids and the Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) procedure, headlined by special guests including media personality, Ms. Cynthia Bailey-Hill and leading fibroids and women’s health expert, Dr. John Lipman, MD.

"We made magic together, I'm fibroid free": Ms. Cynthia Bailey-Hill, opened up about her long standing and tumultuous fibroid journey, as well as her final decision to follow through with the UFE procedure with Dr. Lipman. Cynthia shared about her mother’s own experience of suffering from fibroids prior to her own experience. She shared with the summit audience how her mother was encouraged to have a hysterectomy; and ultimately did. However, Cynthia witnessed first hand what many women suffer through after undergoing hysterectomy. Many of these issues are embarrassing, like sexual dysfunction and urinary leaking. Bailey-Hill also spoke to the fact that she too was given hysterectomy as the only treatment option from her Ob/Gyn, but felt that it seemed “a bit too extreme”, which then led her to pursue her own research about available fibroid treatments. This led her to one of the leading fibroid treatment Centers in the country, Atlanta Fibroid Center. Cynthia also discussed at length, just how her quality of life was disrupted by having to navigate through fibroids. Whether this was the heavy bleeding, pelvic pain, or constantly asked whether or not she was pregnant; this was both physically and mentally draining for her. Her seminal event came at a Bravo event where she wore an exquisite off-white evening gown. She rose out of her chair and knew immediately something was wrong. She expelled a large blood clot and the blood just kept on coming, through her undergarments and down her legs.
She knew then she could no longer put off treating the fibroids.

The Power Up Summit was created to “discover, learn, and connect at the most powerful event of the year!” It certainly afforded folks the opportunity to do so, as many women experienced feeling heard, seen, and comforted by the words of Cynthia Bailey-Hill. She discussed the significance of sharing her fibroid journey with the world, while filming for The Real Housewives of Atlanta (RHOA) franchise. She said “there was never any wearing white… there were always messy sheets”, referring back to the years that she suffered from having fibroids, until she agreed to have a UFE procedure. Following the UFE procedure, she wore white at a Wear White Women’s Health event hosted by Dr. Lipman. The UFE procedure with Dr. Lipman while filming RHOA, was in Cynthia’s words, “one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.” Cynthia’s decision to use her platform as a famous celebrity and make her fibroid journey public was courageous. She knew that fibroids disproportionately affect women of color and she wanted to share her success with UFE with the world.

As found on the Atlanta Fibroid Center website, compared to hysterectomy, uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) is:
- Safer (much lower complication rate in terms of both incidence and severity)
- Much less painful
- Much shorter recovery (5-7 days versus 6-8 or more with surgery)
- Less expensive (outpatient procedure)
- No hospital or hospital stay needed
- No general anesthesia (sedation is local and intravenous)
- No transfusions
- You keep your uterus and the ability to bear children remains.
