# What Bioengineers Should Know About Flow Measurement for Endometrial Ablation

By [John Haberstock](https://blog.transonic.com/life-science-research/author/john-haberstock)14 Apr 2020

Endometrial ablation is performed to stop or reduce heavy menstrual bleeding in women who do not plan to have any children. The procedure uses microwave energy, ![Transonic_LPthumb_11-Endometrial-Ablation](https://blog.transonic.com/hs-fs/hubfs/13%20Bio%20Guides/Transonic_LPthumb_11-Endometrial-Ablation.png?width=250&name=Transonic_LPthumb_11-Endometrial-Ablation.png)radiofrequency energy, or direct heat or cold to rid the uterus of its endometrial lining, and employs several modalities including: 

- Electricity
- Hydrothermal
- Balloon
- Radiofrequency and more

 

The downside of these methods is that patients have to be put under general anesthesia and have a longer recovery time.
