Brief Answer:
It is a normal finding.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
After an endometrial ablation it is normal not to have any periods for many months. There can be an irregular pinkish discharge as the endometrium gradually grows back. This is a normal occurrence and is not worrisome. The lower back pain that you are having is not related to the procedure. It can be a muscular pain that can eb relieved by mild pin killers, hot compress and rest.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
