Earlier use of LNG-IUS is no exclusion.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: • Women who don’t speak Dutch or English to a standard that they can fully understand the study and complete the trial questionnaires. • Women who might want to get pregnant in the future will not be included since an endometrium ablation interferes with future pregnancies. • Suspicion on endometrial cancer. • Contra-indications for levonorgestrel IUD. • Already performed Eandometrial Ablation.
