I was scheduled to have an Ablation procedure done today , but while under anesthesia the machine did not work and my Dr performed a D&C instead. The ablation procedure was supposed to help with the heavy bleeding and longer menstrual cycles I've been having. I want to know if the D&C procedure will do the same thing as the ablation procedure was supposed to do?

Hello and welcome to EmpowHer,
The effects of the procedure is directly related to the condition your doctor was trying to treat. Both procedures are basically the same. They both remove damaged and/or abnormal tissue.
You need to discuss with your doctor how this will effect the issue you need treated.
