You sound so similar to me. I am so frustrated with the weight gain, I hate to leave the house. Have you found any relief?

I had the ablation done in Nov '12 and started gaining weight rapidly exactly one year after the ablation. I've gained 35 pounds. I have never weighed this much, even 9 months pregnant. I eat a clean, heathy diet and all Bloodwork/thyroid has come back fine. Has anyone found relief from this? Or a doctor who has helped?? I am so miserable.

I'm two months shy of a year since my oblation in 2014

I have not changed my eating(No Dairy, No Sugar, No wheat) or exercise routine (Walking at least 30 min a day

Since i've had this done my stomach has changed shape. My stomach was was fat below the belly button now its higher up.  I used to be able to hide the fat bulge below now i have a muffin top when i put on my old jeans and it's not fun to look at in T-Shirts.  I'm still a size 10 with a muffin top added.

I'm hoping that my stomach needed a lot of time to heal and will go back to it's original shape soon. We can always hope.

Even though this happened i would still have this procedure again.   I have no idea even when i'm having my period each month and it has given me my freedom back.

I had the Novasure procedure about a year ago. I feel like I have been lied to by my doctor and Novasure. No one told me about the weight gain...for me five pounds of belly fat. Also, the cramps I am experiencing now are debilitating. I didn't have horrible cramping the first 10 months. It seems like the less bleeding then the more cramping. It's not worth it. I do not recommend this procedure. Now my GYN is recommending a hysterectomy. I thought Novasure was supposed to prevent one.

Hi I just had this surgery a few months ago and I am also happy to say I do not have periods anymore, however I have also gained weight and it is very discouraging to say the least. I have always been at a healthy weight and now I cannot stop gaining. I am trying a new 21 day fix program to help me loose the weight. If you find out anything that can be done please let me know. I have tried the water pills but no good

I had a tubal and ablation May 2014. I have just started putting on weight. 15lbs in a month. Very depressing cause I workout regularly and eat good. I was a 6/8 now 10/12

I have gained around 25 since I have my surgery, 2009. It is so frustrating, if anyone gains any knowledge, as to why this is happening to us, please share. Prayers for you all and may we find an answer to this. I can't stand it.

I too have gained. I've never had a weight problem, always weighed around 110. This morning the scale said 127! It's been 1yr and three months since my procedure, no change in habits and the weight just keeps piling on!

How many pounds of tissue and blood you were shading each period and which fed of course from the calories you consumed? All that tissue and blood are not eliminated anymore and guess where the calories go? Someplace else I guess. Just thinking...

I to had blood work done..quickly gained weight no matter i did could not loose with mood swings. But everything tested normal. After the ablation in Nov..2013 which unfortunately did not work for me. March 2014 had a hysterectomy and actually lost 30 lbs.. just fell off. Now actually11 lbs under my average weight. My weight has shifted in my stomach going to try sit-ups to tighten. But overall I'm happier. And no more mood swings and no hot flashes. Yayyy
