For the woman who have had the Endometrial Ablation Proceedure?

My doctor has recommended this for me. It sounds GREAT but I was wondering (to those who have had this done) does it stop your period all together or what? Also, did it stop your pre-menstrual symptoms, (bloating, mood change, hunger, etc..) Any other info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks ahead

I already have children and am in my late 30's and would not want anymore anyway so that is not an issue here.

I had an endometrial ablation done back in 12/04 for very heavy/problematic periods.

For some women, the ablation may end their periods. For others, like myself, the period becomes lighter. :)

It does NOT stop any type of hormonally induced troubles... such as PMS-type symptoms. (I wish it did... I have seriously severe PMDD.)

I wish you all the best. I guess you already know that you must not become pregnant after an ablation and that a permanent method of bc must be implemented, either by you or your partner, so I won't go into that. I had the Essure procedure done at the same time.
