Is That Normal To Gain Weight Because Of Uterine Ablation?

My GYN is suggesting an uterine ablation for an enlarged uterus and thickened lining of 1.8. I read that most people gain weight. I don't want to do that. Is that normal to gain weight because I have been gaining weight since I have been so irregular with bleeding.

Hello and welcome to HealthcareMagic..
I thank you for posting your query here and I'm definitely going to help you..

I read your question completely and have understood it well enough..

Please note..

1. The Ablation procedure per say does not increase the weight.

2. But yes, hormonal changes towards the menopause definitely causes more fat accumulation and hence weight gain.

3. You can safely undergo this procedure without thinking about weight gain due to this procedure..

Hope this helps, and in case you need further assistance, please contact me directly by searching my profile Dr Manjunath Metri.
Take care and all the best..
