A member asked:
Is thermablate endometrial ablation a usual treatment for uterine polyps if there is no heavy bleeding? what are the alternative polyp treatments?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Simple : dilation and curettage, and hysterscopic visualization could be done. However,the ablation would help decrease the regrowth of new polyps if done with the D&C.
