Abnormally heavy periods can disrupt your daily routine, interfere with work or school, and leave you feeling frustrated month after month. If this sounds familiar, you aren’t alone, and you don’t have to accept a fate of struggling in silence.
The team at Ideal Gynecology, LLC, offers effective solutions for women’s health, including abnormal menstrual periods, which can significantly impact daily life.
For women dealing with heavy periods, endometrial ablation is an advanced option available here in our office. This safe and effective treatment is designed to bring lasting relief.

If your periods match these signs, it may be time to talk with our team about treatment options like endometrial ablation.
Endometrial ablation removes a thin layer of the uterine lining called the endometrium, which is the tissue that builds up and sheds during your menstrual cycle. The procedure is minimally invasive and effective at treating heavy periods. Eliminating or reducing the lining results in lighter, easier-to-manage periods. For some women, this treatment stops periods altogether.
The procedure is quick and can be done in the office without the need for traditional surgery. Many women can return to their routine within a day or two.
Endometrial ablation is generally recommended for women who:
Because pregnancy after ablation can be unsafe, this option is only appropriate if you’re sure your family is complete.
At Ideal Gynecology, your comfort is our top priority. You can expect to be in a comfortable setting while we explain each step throughout. The procedure is usually completed in under 30 minutes. Depending on the technique used, our team may apply gentle heat, cold, or energy to treat the uterine lining.
You may feel some cramping during and after the procedure, but this usually resolves within a day or two. Over-the-counter pain relievers are often all that’s needed for recovery. Most women notice a difference in their periods after just one cycle, with continued improvement over time.
For women struggling with heavy menstrual bleeding, endometrial ablation can offer life-changing relief. Benefits may include:
