Heavy periods can be hard to manage on their own, which is why many women turn to endometrial ablation. Endometrial ablation removes the inner uterine lining (endometrium) to lighten or even eliminate periods.
The MyFlow® endometrial ablation program at Amy Brenner, MD & Associates gives our patients freedom from uncomfortable periods. As the top cosmetic gynecologists and women’s health experts in Cincinnati, we believe endometrial ablation is safe, effective, and provides long-term results.
How endometrial ablation is safe
When you visit a credible professional who uses an FDA-approved device like Novasure, endometrial ablation is a safe and scientifically backed procedure to treat heavy menstrual bleeding. The procedure uses radiofrequency energy to heat and ablate endometrial tissue. With endometrial removal, most women never have periods, or the periods they get are much lighter and shorter.
On the other hand, if you choose a sketchy provider who doesn’t use safe devices, then that’s probably not the safest option for your body. We highly recommend doing your research before choosing a clinic to perform your procedure.
Does endometrial ablation compare to hysterectomy?
Endometrial ablation is not safe for women who want to get pregnant
If you suffer from heavy periods but still want to have children in the future, then endometrial ablation would not be a safe option for you. Since it removes the inner uterine lining, it greatly reduces the chance for pregnancy. In the off chance you become pregnant after an endometrial ablation procedure, the pregnancy would be high risk. Therefore, at Amy Brenner, MD & Associates, we only perform the procedure for women 100% done with having children.
