I had my uterus ablated.....best thing ever for bleeding. I used to wake up thinking someone slaughter a deer in bed with me. Only wore black pants 7-10 days of the month. But the ablation did nothing for the pelvic pain.

After years of drs searching for the issue.....I had a lap at the end of May. Confirmed Endo plus adhesions all over my bladder.

Even after surgery I still have pain.

So I am going to try the IUD.

I've had mine for 4 years, it made a massive difference for me, but I did bleed for a long time at first, as the hormones of worn off my low back pains back, by gynae told me some women can use up all the hormones from an UID in a couple of month proving it useless, other women use the hormones over years. They never tell you that when they insert it. So most of the time women need to have if changed more often and early.

Ive had good success with mirena. First 4-5 months was irregular, almost constant, bleeding. After that it slowed right down and now I only get a very light period every 3-4 months. The mirena isnt for everyone. Doctor says it is normal to take about 3-4 months to adjust. Maybe see how it goes and if its not right, go to plan b. :) all the best!

Thanks and Good luck! Joining this site has helped me a lot. Hugs to you all

Thanks ablation is my Drs second option if IUD fails me
