Things To Consider
As the inside lining or nest is essentially destroyed, the procedure should not be considered if there is even a remote chance that you may want children.
Not only will the nest or cavity of the uterus be unable to properly receive the embryo, if a pregnancy successfully attaches to the nest/ lining, the pregnancy could be frought with potentially life-threatening difficulties such as placenta acreta, a condition where the placenta or afterbirth does not separate/detach after a delivery as it should. This can lead to extreme bleeding and possibly an emergency hysterectomy under some circumstances.
There are numerous types of endometrial ablation methods. A consultation with your doctor to discuss your family planning wishes, while providing you with options for treatment will be a good time to address these concerns.
