    Wow, sounds like you've been through the ringer. I've been lucky. Never had problems until last year. I asked about the ablation because I have two co-workers who had it done for heavy periods and neither of them has had a period since, so I wondered if that was a treatment, but apparently not :-)

    I think ablation can completely eliminate periods for some (lucky) women. Because of endometriosis it helped lighten my flow by a LOT, but the endo keeps the bleeding coming. My reproductive bits are totally stupid.

    If you don't have endo you may have total relief, but if you're not hemorrhaging, then maybe taking progesterone for part of each cycle would be a better solution.
