Hi, I have gone through your problem. I am assuming that 'thick liner' you mentioned means thick uterine (endometrial) lining. Since you have heavy menstrual periods, it is recommended to have some form of treatment. Both D & C and ablation are effective methods, though ablation have much better results in the long run. The problem recurs after D & C after few cycles, but it is not a problem with ablation. Endometrial ablation is recommended in women who do not want further pregnancies, as it creates problem in having a successful pregnancy afterwards.I would suggest you to undergo ablation if further childbearing is not a issue, otherwise go for D & C.
