Men’s Health Month is a reminder to prioritize your health, not just when something feels wrong, but as part of your daily routine.

Interventional radiology has minimally invasive treatments for a wide range of conditions affecting men, including vascular disease, prostate concerns, and more. These image-guided procedures carry less downtime, fewer risks, and faster recovery compared to traditional surgery.

If you've been managing symptoms or putting off care, there may be a more efficient, less invasive option available.

This Men’s Health Month, take the next step toward better health with care designed to get you back to living fully.

Hemorrhoids are more common than you might think—and often linked to everyday habits and life changes like diet, digestion, and even pregnancy.

The good news? Understanding the cause is the first step toward real relief.

Hemorrhoid Artery Embolization (HAE) requires no general anesthesia, no incisions, and no scarring. Because the procedure is not performed from within the re**um, there is no painful recovery. You may return home the same day and resume normal activities.

Being told you need a hysterectomy for fibroids can feel overwhelming—but it’s not your only option.

Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) is a non-surgical treatment that works by blocking blood flow to fibroids, causing them to shrink over time. Unlike a hysterectomy, it doesn't require major surgery, offers a much faster recovery, and preserves the uterus.

For many women, it’s an effective way to relieve symptoms like heavy periods and pelvic pressure without the risks and downtime of surgery. You have options—and your treatment should fit your life.

May is National Women’s Health Month—a reminder to listen to your body and prioritize your well-being 💛

If you've been dealing with heavy periods, pelvic pain, bloating, or frequent urination, it may be more than “just part of being a woman.” Uterine fibroids affect millions of women, often silently impacting daily life.

Uterine Fibroid Embolization offers a new solution. It's a minimally invasive, non-surgical treatment for fibroids that preserves fertility and hormonal balance.

This month, take a moment to check in with your health. Learn more about UFE at Alate Health: https://alatehealth.com/services/uterine-fibroid-embolization-ufe-treatment/

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), or an enlarged prostate, is a common condition as men age. While not cancerous, it can significantly affect quality of life. Symptoms often develop gradually and may include frequent urination, especially at night, difficulty starting or stopping urination, a weak urine stream, and a feeling of incomplete bladder emptying.

When medications no longer provide relief, many men assume surgery is the next step. However, Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE) is another minimally invasive option. PAE works by reducing blood flow to the enlarged prostate, causing it to shrink and easing urinary symptoms without major surgery.

If you’ve been diagnosed with uterine fibroids, you may have been told that surgery, like a hysterectomy or myomectomy, is your only option. Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) offers a less invasive, but still effective alternative.

UFE treats fibroids by blocking their blood supply, causing them to shrink, without removing the uterus.

Benefits of UFE compared to more invasive treatments:
- No major abdominal surgery
- No removal of the uterus
- Shorter recovery time
- Less pain and scarring
- Typically an outpatient procedure

For many women, UFE provides significant symptom relief from heavy bleeding, pelvic pain, and pressure, while preserving the uterus and avoiding a long recovery.

If chronic knee pain from osteoarthritis has you thinking about knee replacement, but you’re not ready for surgery, Genicular Artery Embolization (G*E) may be an alternative worth considering.

G*E is a minimally invasive procedure that targets the small arteries contributing to inflammation in the knee. By reducing blood flow to these inflamed areas, G*E can decrease pain and improve function, without replacing the joint.

Why patients consider G*E:
- No large incisions or joint removal
- Outpatient procedure
- Shorter recovery time than surgery
- Preserves your natural knee

For patients looking to delay or avoid knee replacement, G*E offers a less invasive path to pain relief. Call 713-913-0667 to learn more

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) occurs when narrowed arteries reduce blood flow to the legs. Symptoms can develop gradually—and are often mistaken for normal aging.

Watch for:
- Leg pain or cramping when walking that improves with rest
- Numbness or weakness in the legs
- Cold feet or toes
- Slow-healing wounds on the legs or feet
- Shiny skin or hair loss on the legs
- Pain in the feet at rest (in more advanced cases)

If you notice these symptoms, don’t ignore them. Early evaluation and treatment can improve circulation and reduce the risk of serious complications.
