I'm 39 years old and have had one child (now 17 years old). A year ago I started having periods that last anywhere from 2 weeks straight, or heavy interrmitent bleeding. Every period comes with excruciating cramping, fatigue and huge disgusting blood clots. I've had uterine fibroids removed 13 years ago via laparoscopy and had an ovarian cyst removed almost 2 years ago. I'm scheduled to see a new Gyn. next month and the term "cryo ablation" has been mentioned by primary care physician.
Has anybody had either cryo ablation or REA (known as 'roller-ball' ablation)? I'm curious as to the pro's and cons of each - especially recovery time.
Thank you.
