NovaSure is an endometrial ablation procedure that works by removing the endometrium, or the lining of the uterus (the part that causes the bleeding), with a quick delivery of radiofrequency energy.
NovaSure works in four simple steps:
| Your doctor slightly opens your cervix (the opening to the uterus), inserts a slender wand, and extends a triangular mesh device into the uterus | The mesh gently expands, fitting to the size and shape of your uterus |
| Precisely measured radio frequency energy is delivered through the mesh for about 90 seconds, gently removing the lining of the uterus | The mesh device is pulled back into the wand and both are removed from the uterus |
