Does An Endometrial Ablation Cause Weight Gain?

hello, I had an endometrial ablation in Dec 2016 and have since gained 12 lbs. My doctor insists that weight gain is not a side effect but it seems many, many other women who have had an ablation have also complained of weight gain. I have not changed my eating habits since the procedure and have been around the same weight since having kids. Also was always very easy for me to lose weight but seems these lbs are just hanging on. Feeling very discouraged and wondering why doctors seem to refuse that weight gain is an option when it seems we are all gaining it around our belly areas post-ablation.

Hi,

Endometrial abalation does not cause weight gain.

The weight gain may be due to some other causes and you can do regular physical exercises to lose extra weight.
