NovaSure Impedance Controlled Edometrial Ablation

NovaSure® Endometrial Ablation is a minimally invasive treatment designed to reduce or stop heavy menstrual bleeding caused by abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) due to benign causes. The system uses precisely measured radio-frequency energy to ablate the endometrium, the lining of the uterus responsible for menstrual bleeding. The procedure is performed through the cervix and is designed as a one-time treatment that can be completed in approximately five minutes, helping provide an alternative to more invasive surgical approaches for appropriately selected premenopausal women who have completed childbearing.
