What is an endometrial ablation?
Endometrial ablation is a surgical procedure that destroys the lining of your uterus to reduce heavy menstrual bleeding and prevent anemia from excessive loss of blood.
Ablation technologies include heated fluids, extreme cold, or radio frequencies and require no incisions. During the procedure, your doctor at North Scottsdale Women’s Health inserts a slender tool into the vaginal canal to treat the uterine lining.
Your doctor may not recommend an endometrial ablation if you’re postmenopausal or have uterine issues like abnormalities or uterine cancer.
What can I expect during a labial reduction?
A labial reduction, also known as a labiaplasty, is a procedure that your doctor may recommend to decrease the length of the labia minora. This procedure may be necessary if you experience pain, itching, or irritation during sexual activity or when performing specific activities.
You can also discuss this procedure with your doctor if you are self-conscious of the condition during intimacy or when wearing a bathing suit or other form-fitting clothing.
