I’m looking at endometrial ablation for fibroids with a put in the coil and heat up the tumor to destroy it.

I am wondering if anybody has had this procedure and did it work for them. I am looking at endometrial ablation for fibroids, they put in the coil and heat up the tumor to destroy it. I am wondering if anybody has had this procedure and did it work for them.

    If you're talking about radiofrequency ablation then it was a horrible mistake for me.

      Why was radiofrequency ablation (Acessa) a horrible mistake for you? I'm currently considering this procedure as well.

    Same too came across a tweet suggesting that it may not be appropriate for women who already had sections ... Have had two sections

    So at the moment in a fix will have to go back to the doctor to explore other option or go for a myomectomy.

    Please if your case is similar to mine your comments will be highly appreciated

      No sections, but looking at a myomectomy or second embolization.
