Microwave endometrial ablation (MEA) is a new treatment for the patients with hypermenorrhea. MEA is less invasive and safen than hysterectomy.We performed MEA for 8 patients (39 to 51 year-old Japanese women) with hypermenorrhea using a curved applicator. The endometrium was observed by the hysteroscope before and after MEA to confirm ablation. The four points of endometrium were ablated by microwave (1 point : 70W, 50sec.). No complications of MEA were observed.After MEA, no menstruation has come on the half of patients with hypermenorrhea, and the others have experienced minor menstrual bleeding. Concerning with dysmenorrhea, one patient has felt no change after MEA, but some patients improved their symptoms.MEA is an easy, effective and safe treatment for women with hypermenorrhea.
