information on oblation Posted: 07-20-06 10:01am
Can any one give me information on
oblation, like what to expect after having
one, will I still go through the change of
life? Any information will be helpful.
Thanks lydia

Do you mean endometrial ablation? You
don't go through 'the change'. You only
go through menopause when your ovaries are
removed or they cease to function. And
endometrial ablation is generally done to
remove the lining of the uterus in a short
procedure (15-45 minutes). This procedure
is done when someone is having heavy
periods - perhaps for fibriods?
You will still go through menopause when
it is your time to go through it. (i just
realized that was what your question
was.)
here are some links I found doing a search
for "endometrial ablation"
