Update- I first posted in early October after having undergone the cryoablation on September 30, 2009, and have to say it was a success, although I was not one of the lucky ones whose period was totally eliminated. My procedure was relatively easy (see October 1 post), and I have since had four periods. While they are still frequent (ranging from every 22-25 days), I no longer am experiencing one extremely heavy day where I leak through even if I change my tampon hourly. I would say that my periods are moderate at best, which means I don't have to schedule the day around my proximity to a bathroom and my night not sleeping for fear of an accident. While I'm still anemic and still need iron infusions, I feel like I can live my life again. I would recommend this procedure to anyone.
