I am very sorry to hear about all the failed procedures. I originally posted on July 22, 2009. I have to say, for me, this has been a success. Here's my story: I am 45 years old. I had the procedure done because for more than a year, I was constantly spotting between periods. I mean, almost every day. My periods have always been heavy, but I guess I learned to live with them. I've been on the pill since I finished nursing my daughter, almost 13 years ago. After the procedure, I leaked the heavy watery discharge for about a week, then it slowed down so that panti-liners were enough. About a week before my period was due (which was 2 weeks after the procedure), I started spotting a light pinkish discharge, with tiny flecks of tissue. When my period was actually supposed to happen (now mind you, I'm still on the pill, so I know EXACTLY when I will get my period), I had absolutely NOTHING. I had no spotting at all the next month, leading up to my 2nd period. The 2nd period was heavy. I feel like THAT was what I was supposed to have had the first month. The doctor had told me my first period would be heavier than normal to get rid of all the frozen tissue. But, like I said, I had no period the first month, and the 2nd was very heavy. Last week was what should have been my third period since the procedure, and it was practically nothing. One panti-liner a day for 3 days, and that's it! NO spotting at all in between. Maybe I was lucky, but I consider this to be a complete success. Now I just have to decide if I want to go off the pill.
