Specializes in Obstetrics & Gynecology

Check with your doc: Ablation works in 90-95% or women, so check as to whether there were circumstances in your situation that put your procedure in the failed category. Cervical cauterization is not a commonly performed procedure these days vs years ago, when it was fairly common.
