First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a 5-minute educational video about uterine fibroids and their treatments can help patients feel less conflicted when deciding on a treatment plan. About 154 women with fibroids will be randomly assigned to watch the video before their appointment or receive usual care. Researchers will measure decisional conflict using a survey after the visit.
