a benign fatty tumor usually composed of mature fat cells. They have a special importance in horses, in which the pedunculated tumors in the abdominal cavity uncommonly twist themselves around a loop of small intestine, sometimes just below the pylorus or around the rectum.
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.
Without progesterone, estrogen is unable to support the growing endometrium on its own. So, eventually the uterine lining is shed, and you get what seems to be your period. But because ovulation did not occur, this type of anovulatory bleeding is not a true period, but rather is known as estrogen breakthrough bleeding.
