 Afternoon, I know I am a little bit late. I'm sorry, early this morning. My name is Chelsea Knudsen, and I am a certified holistic health coach, and I coach women on how to heal naturally from female related issues. I'm short on time today, so I wanted to just come quickly and just talk to you about should you get the endometrial ablation sort of outpatient surgery that is being offered right now. If you are someone who is struggling deeply with the heavy bleeding, bleeding in between periods, or you bleed all the time, some doctors are recommending that type of a surgery. Well, it is, yeah, it is a surgery, and there's several different ways that they do it. Some doctors go in and they put a liquid in there and just kind of, what did it, well, first of all, what this surgery is, is they destroyed the uterine lining, and what it's supposed to do is cause the bleeding to either stop completely or lessen your monthly bleeding that you get when you have a period. And in some women, it actually works, and in other women, it doesn't work, or it works temporarily, and it will start to, the same problems that they had in the first place will begin again. And so, I just wanted to talk about that a little bit as to really, is this something that you should consider? And yes, I mean, if you're having heavy bleeding and you want to consider it, by all means consider it, but there are a few things I wanna tell you before you decide to go and do it. First of all, do research. And get peace inside your heart before you decide to go do it, because even though it is a simple outpatient procedure that they do, there are repercussions to some people getting it. So for example, if you're a woman who wants to have children, it's probably not a good idea for you because it could ruin your chances of implantation in the future. And some women have had it and they've gotten pregnant and there's been no problem. But all women are not created equal so you don't know what's going to happen. Same thing, I say the same thing for all these types of procedures, but it's true because there's no way you can know what your outcome is gonna be, which how your body is going to respond to these particular issues. Also, if you've had a baby and you've had a caesarean section, it is recommended that you don't get this procedure because it could aggravate your old caesarean scar. Also, it can also affect your sex life. I have not heard anybody say anything about getting the procedure in it and it affecting their sex life, but if you go and research it, that is one of the possible side effects. I don't know what the percentage of that being a side effect is, but I just know that it is a possible side effect. But overall, what I wanna say about it is that if you get it and don't address the issue as to why you were having the heavy bleeding in the first place, you're opening up the door for the same thing to happen again, just like if you go and you get a myomectomy or some other procedure that takes away fibroids or you remove one of your ovaries because it has a cyst on it, or whatever your procedure is that you decide to take. If you don't address the root causes of the issue, the problem will return like it is inevitable because you've got to get to the root cause of why you were having the problem in the first place. So that's really the main thing that I wanted to say about this. It wasn't to get into like to do the what this procedure is. I didn't wanna go deep with it or anything like that, but I just wanna say you have to think about what is the root cause of it? Why are you bleeding so heavy? And if you don't know what that reason is, you can go back through some of my videos on my YouTube channel to teach yourself so that you can learn about those things or you can contact me for a free coaching session. Be glad to talk to you about what your specific root cause might be as to why you're bleeding based on what your history is. There's a link in the description box below and I can share with you. I mean, you can click on the link below and sign up for a free coaching session if you haven't had one yet. Also, I am producing an e-book for juice recipes specifically for female reproductive health. So the juice that you eat, I mean that you would drink from this book that I'm creating will directly relate to helping you with female reproductive issues. So that's been something that I've asked about and people have said, yes, they want that. And so I'm coming out with that and that is going to be February 1st. That will be here. The other thing I wanted to ask you all to is what would you think about a cooking class? I always, you know, I have the foods to avoid to shrink fibroids webinar that I do. I try to do it once a month. I have been doing it once a month. I don't know about February, but we'll see what happens. But I also have the Facebook group. And if you're interested in any of those, the links are below so that you can participate. But I'm always telling people what they should not eat. And people are like, well, what should I eat? What can I eat? You Chelsea have taken away all of my food. I don't know what it is I can eat. Well, I am coming up with a cooking class, I believe. I haven't quite done it yet, but I'm mulling over it in my head showing you exactly the foods that you can eat and recipes and how to make the recipes so that you are actually able to do the things that I'm saying that you should do to help yourself. So I'm thinking of that. If that's something that you think you would be interested in, please comment below. Just say, yes, I'm interested in the cooking class. That would be great. I can put that together really quickly. I have plenty of recipes that I can share and show you exactly how to make. Yeah, so, yeah, let me know about that. Also, I wanna thank everybody who told me last week that I was having sound issues because truth be told, I didn't know because from my end, I can hear it loud and clear when I played the video back and it didn't, like I had no idea that I was having sound issues. So thank you so much for that feedback. Also, if you would tell me some of the things that you wanna hear about, going forward, put them in the comment section below. If you have questions, put them in the comment section below and what else did I wanna tell you today? Also, my group programs launches on Sunday, January 14th. If you are interested in the 90-day Walk to Freedom from Fibroids Group Coaching Program, it is scheduled to start on Sunday and you can sign up. There's a link below. So anyway, y'all, I enjoy sharing with you. Please put your questions below and I will be back next Wednesday at noon sharp in my normal environment. I'm trying to fix my camera sound issue. I think it's probably a little bit better today because I have my headphones on. If you guys can just tell me about that, that would be great and please be careful whenever you're considering the endometrial ablation procedure. Do your research. Don't just go by what anybody tells you you should or shouldn't be doing. Do what's best for you. All right, y'all, thanks so much for watching and I will see y'all live next week. Take care.
