HIFU for Endo/ adenomyosis

I figure in overseas, there is a new treatment called HIFU, which is high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment to have less invasive nature and being able to have shorter processing time.

May I know if anyone have come across this previously or have come across any UK doctor who practice this? Many thanks!

my aesthetician does HIFU. I’ve not had it personally but she’s talked a lot about how it helps women, in particular with bladder issues, vaginal dryness etc.

I am keen to know the exact same, it's shocking that the NHS and private sector in the UK offers so few treatments other than the pill or hysterectomy.

Not what you're looking for?
