Yes: Uterine ablation is a huge decision for somebody at your age, i would assume at 27 or 28 now. Once the uterine lining is ablated, implantation of an embryo is very difficult. Since you were able to conceive without an ablation i would have a reproductive endocrinologist help you conceive quickly.

It's not recommended: Any pregnancy after an ablation would be very high risk and should be avoided. The uterus is likely scared and would not support a healthy pregnancy. See another doctor to discuss reliable contraception including sterilization.
