Endometrial Ablation

 

Endometrial ablation, also sometimes referred to as a uterine ablation procedure, offers several benefits for women experiencing heavy menstrual bleeding. As a minimally invasive, non-surgical procedure, it significantly reduces menstrual flow, with some women experiencing little to no bleeding afterward. It provides a quick recovery with minimal discomfort, allowing most patients to return to normal activities within a few days. 

Unlike hormonal treatments, endometrial ablation does not require ongoing medication and can be a good alternative for those who cannot tolerate hormones. Also,by avoiding the need for a hysterectomy, endometrial ablation provides a less invasive option for symptom relief while preserving the uterus.

After their endometrial ablation procedure, many women experience improved quality of life, reduced anemia, and relief from the fatigue and discomfort caused by excessive bleeding. However, this procedure is not recommended for women who wish to become pregnant, as it can make future pregnancies high-risk, and it may not be the most effective treatment for adenomyosis in all cases.
