Abstract

Endometrial ablation is the process to remove the uterine lining. It helps those women who are suffering from heavy or prolonged periods or those with bleeding in between periods. A doctor will typically prescribe medication or an intrauterine device (IUD) to help relieve heavy or problematic periods. If these treatments do not work, endometrial ablation is another option.
