I’ve had a few patients that I know really don’t like endo ablation, because some people can never recover from it. I have a few patients that had this happen to them, so I am always very uncomfortable.
Some women with endometrial hyperplasia can get breast implants, which will cause the endometrium to grow outside of its normal range and produce too much growth hormone. This can cause bloating, which is another possible side effect. But the most common way that women experience bloating is after they have an endometrial ablation.
Of course, I’m referring to the “bloating” that I experience after the endometrial ablation procedure. The bloating is one of the worst side effects of endometrial ablation, especially for a woman who will be having the procedure. The bloating is definitely painful and can cause you some discomfort.
The one thing that I can tell you about bloating is that it should be expected. Unlike the common cold, you can’t simply say, “This is what bloating feels like.” All the different emotions that you experience when you experience bloating are real and may include nausea, vomiting, and/or diarrhea.
This is a common side effect of endometrial ablation, but not all women experience the common side effects. Some women find it more difficult than others and may skip some of the discomfort. That’s why it’s so important to talk to your physician to discuss what to expect.
I’m no doctor, but I will say I’ve never experienced anything like this and I’m not on any anti-diarrhea medication. (If you are on any of those, just know that you’ll feel terrible.) The only thing I can offer is to try to keep anything that’s in your system as far away from your bowels as possible. If its going to affect you, it needs to be out of your system.
When endometrial ablation is done, the doctor will put a tiny wire (the endometrial ablation electrode) into your uterus (the inside of your uterus). This wire is attached to an instrument (the ablation electrode) and is inserted through your vagina. It causes the bleeding inside your uterus to stop, and then sends a signal to a monitor in the doctor’s room. The doctor will then take your blood pressure, pulse, and temperature.
The pain can be intense and lasts for a day. If the pain is severe and lasts for more than 1 day, a doctor can prescribe a painkiller. If the pain is tolerable, and you are able to continue with your physical activity, a doctor can consider prescribing an anti-nausea medication.
The pain itself can be intense and last for a day. However, if the pain is tolerable and you are able to continue with your physical activity, a doctor can consider prescribing an anti-nausea medication.
Endometriosis is a condition that affects as many as 10% of women over the age of 40. It is an infection that occurs on the surface of the uterus, which can grow. The most common types of endometriosis are diffuse and are found all over the body. The most common symptoms of endometriosis are a painful pelvic lump and spotting.
