I had this done in August and have had 2 menstrual cycles. The first really heavy the second not as bad.

From my understanding, it can take up to 6 cycles to see the full results, and thermal or cryo ablation is used to reduce or eliminate bleeding; most often, it significantly reduces the bleeding (instead of completely eliminating it).

You can join in on the discussion of Her Option at the link below, and read other's experiences that they've shared on empowher.com. (I read through many of the posts, and most women said each period has been lighter than the previous after the procedure):

What did your doctor tell you to expect?
