Her
Option is designed for office use and women’s comfort in
mind. The
procedure typically takes 20 to 30 minutes and uses
cryoablation (cold temperatures). Cold has a natural analgesic affect, reducing pain associated
with the procedure. Her
Option is a natural choice for women with heavy periods who
are looking for an alternative to a hysterectomy,
maintaining your natural hormones.
During the treatment, your doctor will
monitor the progress of the treatment using an abdominal
ultrasound. A slender probe will be gently inserted through your vagina
into your uterus and is cooled until it reaches sub-zero
temperatures. Typically,
multiple ice zones are formed.
The NovaSure procedure is a quick, safe, simple, one-time
endometrial ablation treatment. This minimally invasive
procedure controls heavy bleeding by using energy to remove
the lining of the uterus. The average treatment time is
about 90 seconds 1, and
only needs to be performed once to lighten or stop your
periods. No pretreatment drugs are required and NovaSure can
be performed in the hospital or in your doctor's office.
Without the side effects of hormones or the risks of
hysterectomy, NovaSure has a quick recovery time so you can
get back to your life sooner. Most women experience no pain
after the procedure, and can return to work and regular
activities the next day.
