From Janet Thompson
Clare Wilson describes procedures that could delay the onset of menopause (2 January, p 8). She mentions that it may “be possible to do this without continuing to have periods – endometrial ablation can be used to remove the lining of the womb”.
I was advised in May 2015 to have endometrial ablation at the same time as a minor operation to remove a polyp and fibroid. My periods stopped in September 2015. But since June I have had sharp pains in my lower abdomen, increasing in frequency and intensity. Now I have periods, accompanied by these pains.
