Diagnosis and treatment

48% of women with UF report having no knowledge of UF before diagnosis. A lack of clinical guidance adds to diagnosis and treatment delays. 

Globally, there is no long-term, non-invasive, fertility and uterus-sparing treatment for UF. Bayer is therefore investing in this field as part of its clinical development program.
