A patient is scheduled for an endometrial ablation for extreme uterine bleeding.

Correct Answer 2: The patient states that pregnancy needs to be avoided for six months after the procedure.

Early pregnancy miscarriage and infertility can be a result of endometrial ablation. The ablation procedure removes the pregnancy supportive endometrial lining. The uterine muscle, which can also be scarred, is what remains. The uterine muscle is not as receptive or supportive to the fertilized egg as is the uterine lining and many fertilized eggs will never attach- the end result is very early pregnancy miscarriage –or chemical pregnancies.

Most of these endometrial ablation methods prevent you from having your periods for about five to ten years, it also helps with blood clotting later. If you are in your early 30s’ and decide to have this procedure you will start your period again 5-10 years later. It is recommended for women in their 40’s. After the 5-10 years of no period you will be reaching menopause. You won’t have to worry about those discomforting periods any more.

Endometrial ablation normally do not reduce the production of sexual hormones, it just reduced the tissue which responds to these hormones

3 -- In an endometrial ablation, the endometrial layer of the uterus is permanently destroyed using laser surgery or electrosurgical resection. It is performed in women who do not respond to pharmacologic management or D&C. The woman needs to understand that this procedure ends menstruation and reproduction.

This is in theory....because in practice Pregnancies and Menstruation happen
