Microwave endometrial ablation is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat abnormal uterine bleeding by targeting and removing the lining of the uterus (endometrium). This procedure aims to reduce or eliminate heavy menstrual bleeding without the need for a hysterectomy. During the procedure, a thin, flexible probe is inserted through the cervix into the uterus. The probe emits microwave energy that heats and destroys the endometrial tissue. This controlled destruction of the endometrium reduces its ability to grow and shed during menstrual cycles, leading to lighter or no periods.
Microwave endometrial ablation is primarily used to treat conditions such as Menorrhagia; Excessive or prolonged menstrual bleeding and Dysmenorrhea; Painful periods.
After the procedure, patients may experience mild cramping, discomfort, and vaginal discharge for a few days to a week. Patients are advised to avoid any strenuous activities and sexual intercourse for a certain period after the procedure and during the recovery period. Most women can resume their normal activities within a few days. Menstrual bleeding typically becomes lighter and less painful within a few cycles after the procedure. Regular follow-up appointments are an important part of the recovery process.
