Endometrial Ablation. The lining of the uterusâthe endometriumâis shed by bleeding each month during a womanâs menstrual period. Sometimes the bleeding is too much or too long and treatment is needed. If bleeding does not respond to medication, your doctor may suggest endometrial ablation.

If your bleeding interferes with your daily activities, soaks through one or more pads or tampons every hour for several hours or causes you to use a tampon and a pad at the same time, you may be one of the millions of women who experience heavy monthly bleeding, also known as menorrhagia. Living with heavy periods can be very frustrating.
