Freezing Procedure To Treat Heavy Menstrual Bleeding

Alaska rates for HCPCS 58356

This procedure treats heavy menstrual bleeding by destroying the lining of the uterus using controlled freezing, guided by ultrasound imaging to monitor the treatment in real time. It is an alternative to methods that use heat to achieve the same goal of reducing the uterine lining that causes heavy periods. It is not intended for someone who wishes to become pregnant afterward, since it affects the ability of the uterine lining to support a pregnancy.
