I had a uterine ablation 21 days ago. ive begun my first period and its extremely heavy with very large clots. is this normal sheddding afterwards?

Uterine ablation: After a uterine ablation, the bleeding is usually much reduced, which is the reason for the ablation to be done. If the bleeding remains "heavy", see your provider who did the ablation for evaluation.
