[QUOTE="SRL, post: 260709, member: 701"] Jo, I had this done two weeks ago due to heavy bleeding ever since I hit perimenopause. Low dose hormones weren't helping much anymore and I wasn't a good candidate for stronger stuff due to blood pressure problems. I'd even had a 2nd D&C back in Oct and I was back to the heavy bleeding, only this time when it kicked back in the cycle was off and it just didn't end. The doctor found a large polyp when he did the ablation. I was told by women who'd been through it that recovery was much better if they didn't do anything for 2-3 days and I'd pass that advice along. I had to get back in full gear after that and it was no problem. I understand about the Mother Earth sisters. I have a sister in law like that and she was freaked out when I described the ablation procedure. I'm of the opinion that any woman who doesn't have to live with not being able to leave the house because they need the bathroom every 20 minutes has no right to make a call for me. Also, I did find a week later that I was feeling perkier than I have in months. Even though I was never anemic, I'm sure now that I was more run down from the cycles than I realized. If this doesn't work I'm going for a hysterectomy for sure. Good luck and I hope it helps you. Too soon to tell for me. My doctor says whereever you are 4 months out is likely where you'll be at down the road a year. [/QUOTE]
