TREATMENT : MAY INCLUDE ANY OF THE FOLLOWING Low-dose birth control pills. Hormone therapy High-dose estrogen therapy for women with very heavy bleeding Intrauterine device( IUD) that releases the hormone progestin Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) taken just before the period starts Surgery, if the cause of the bleeding is a polyp or fibroid. SURGICAL TREATMENT If medication does not reduce your bleeding, a surgical procedure may be needed. There are different types of surgery depending on your condition, your age, and whether you want to have more children. ENDOMETRIAL ABLATION destroys the lining of the uterus. It stops or reduces the total amount of bleeding. Pregnancy is not likely after ablation, but it can happen. If it does, the risk of serious complications, including life-threatening bleeding, is greatly increased. If you have this procedure, you will need to use birth control until after menopause. UTERINE ARTERY EMBOLIZATION is a procedure used to treat fibroids. This procedure blocks the blood vessels to the uterus, which in turn stops the blood flow that fibroids need to grow. Another treatment, myomectomy, removes the fibroids but not the uterus. HYSTERECTOMY the surgical removal of the uterus, is used to treat some conditions or when other treatments have failed. Hysterectomy also is used to treat endometrial cancer. After the uterus is removed, a woman can no longer get pregnant and will no longer have periods. To be continued:;:: Dr nandini shete
