It : It would be a good idea to see a gynecologist and have the problem evaluated again just to make sure. It is possible that the bleeding may be from the cervix instead of the uterus. There may be a cervical polyp that was not removed during the d&c. If there is no other reason found other the abnormal uterine bleeding, you can stop the problem by having an ablation done. It is a procedure that can be done easily in the doctor's office to stop the bleeding the recovery time is very short so you are back to usual activity in a few days. I have both novasure an thermachoice equipment in the office for ablations. They are both very good. People choose one or the other for different reasons. Mabel obeng md.
