Sigh...3rd period in a month...endometrial ablation?

[mrsreynolds]

Going to Drs next week
Prob get a referral to gynae (again)
I'm 45 and Peri menopausal and have been on hrt for a year
Periods going a bit mad and I feel awful :(
Last time (3 years ago?) I was offered an ablation. I declined. I tried the mirena instead (didn't work and I just bled for 6 months)
Anyone had one?
Did it help?
Would you recommend for this issue?

Had a mirena.
Didn't work for me either
Good luck x

Anyone know the normal wait time for private ops?

I'm seeing Dr next weds.

Is it too hopeful to think it could be by end of month??

I'm feeling so worn out with it all :(

I had mine done last week. I had a novasure, under general.

I had a hysterscope 3 months ago, and polypectomy. Which actually made my periods far worse!

I saw the consultant two weeks ago, and booked for last week. It was done privately but through the NHS.

The recovery is much better than the hysterscope. Minimal pain, I took two pain killers 24 hours post surgery. I have very watery spotting, and apart from gas stuck under my collar bone and just tiredness from the GA, I seem to be fine.

The consultant said I may need it done again as I'm fairly young for the procedure, only just 40.

I'm hopeful that it will work, even for a short period of time.

That's why I declined it 5 years ago Queenie but I'm nearly 46 now and I'm hoping it can see my through to menopause!
