Re: To Dr. Jwang;Re:Ablations and extended bleedingFrom: Debbie (anonymous@obgyn.net)Sat, 10 Jun 2000 12:51:12 -0500 (CDT)
Thanks for the reply:) I had a balloon ablation done, isn't this type considered the best of all the ways they are doing them? I spent a long time researching ablation before I had one and got several doc opinions and everyone and everything points to the balloon ablation as being most effective. I heard now they have a freezing procedure they are doing...I can't believe that one! Yes some woman are having ablations done to just be rid of their periods when there is no excessive bleeding, they are just sick of having periods! I wouldn't have done that. I agree that a lot of doctors do ablations to treat most cases of heavy bleeding when I feel not all are good candidates for one. If one has the proper pre ablation diagnostic testing done and the uterine lining is perfect...with no polyps or fibroids, I feel the balloon ablation is the best choice. Now some woman with fibroids will opt for a myomectomy w/ an ablation, so all cases are different, but w/a situation w/fibroids involved, I don't feel a balloon ablation is the best way to go as that lining has to be perfect I have read. I will wait and see what happens here. I heard it can take up to 12 months for a bleeding pattern to settle in, is this true? Why would this be? I don't get the medical reasoning behind that. Why wouldn't it work the first few months if the lining has been burned off? Thanks again:) Deb
