has anyone had uterine ablation to stop periods?From: andrea (anonymous@obgyn.net)Thu May 17 22:04:51 2007
I have seen several doctors in the last few months and they all say even if I have laparscopy, the endo will most likely return, if I do not stop my periods afterwards. The options are Lupron, Mirena IUD, or gettiing back on the pill, which NEVER helped my period symtoms for 17 years! I have been on the bioidentical progesterone and off the pill for 4 years and that has helped TREMENDOUSLY with mood swings and cramps, but my cramps are getting worse again. I have heard too many horror stories about Lupron and Mirena and am trying to find people who have had the Uterine Ablation procedure for stopping periods. It is permanent, you can't have children afterwards, which I am willing to give up if I can be pain free. It burns away the lining of the uterus that grows your period. I will have laparscopy in conjunction with that. I think it is a healthier option than Lupron or Mirena. Those both have major side effects and I think can cause permanent damage. With the Uterine Ablation, I would at least still have all my organs and aviod having a hysterectomy, which I think too many doctors are quick to recommend! Any info on this would be much appreciated. :)
