I'm 45 years old . I had the Novasure procedure done Sept. 2015. It is now Nov 2015. It all started when I was having two periods a month, so I went to my doctors to find out what could be done. She suggested the novasure would be right for me. Beginning around October, I started having really bad migraines; I had one that lasted around 5 days, and nothing i took helped it at all. On day 6 i stood up to go to the bathroom,and passed out. I was rushed to the hospital was given a shot, and sent home. On day 8 I woke up at 3am because I felt something wet all over me. I went to the bathroom and turned on the light and I thought I was going to pass out. I had blood all over me from a nose bleed; I have not had one of those for many years. I was once again rushed to the hospital; my blood pressure was at 187. I have never had high blood pressure; now I have to check it 3 times a day, and take medications for the rest of my life, and I have to give myself a shot for the migraines. Now today, if I cough or sneeze, I wet myself; According to my doctor, these are all caused by the Novasure procedure, and affect roughly 30% of the women who have the procedure done. If you are thinking of having this procedure done, think long and hard.

Help, help, I had novasure procedure in 2014 and July 21, 2015 I had to have a full hysterectomy. The novasure procedure caused me to have like labor pains every
month for 3 days during what would have
been my cycle time. (Went on for 8 months) My life has drastically changed due to
novasure procedures. I went to 3 gyns before
anyone would help me. The gyns did not
want to touch the issue novasure caused because they were all administering the
procedure. I have spent around $7,000 out of
pocket to get help, not mention the almost $40, 000 the insurance company paid. My
quality of life has been destroyed.
Please contact me, for sure novasure procedure should be stopped. I am 49 years old and feel like I am 80 years old now.

I was lifting,pushing stuff at work when I started bleeding heavily. I was laying in a puddle of blood for three days. I went to MD then Gyn doctor. They put me on 8 hormone pills in a month. Gyn doctor put in novaring. I had two blood transfusions. I was still bleeding. I begged for them to give me a hysterectomy but they said have to follow what insurance allows. So then novasure ablation. When I woke from that I had more transfusions. My feet were crooked,back sore, I couldn't breathe!!! My blood at 7. Better then 4. I went to my moms to heal. There my breathing got worse,I thought my heart was going out. I went to ER there and they found pulmonary embolism!! I stayed at hospital for 2 wks. Warfarin for 2+ years. My inr never right and still not. Warfarin gives me migraines. So I'm on aspirin, oxymoron, I bleed. I've had heart Cathe to get out clots from lung to heart out. Living with scaring on lung,heart which makes breathing hard. I swell like a basket ball then bleed through 3 pads with one move when it decides to bleed! My young kids want me to do things like I used to ,I wish I could! This changed my life forever!!! The new doctors say they can't operate cause of my heart. So I live trapped with bleeding at any time and fear of clots to kill me. My kids also worries that mommy is going to die when bleeding comes or when I am short of breath.

I too had novasure done about 3 years ago. My periods never went away. I have suffered from severe pain with periods since the procedure that have gotten so bad. I now need a hysterectomy. I've lost jobs from calling in sick. I owe medical bills from ER visits and it has altered my sex life as well. The MD said I had ashermans syndrome due to the ablation. I was never warned of these side effects. I have lost so much because of this. Contact me I'm on board for a law suit. Jennifer

I had an endometrial ablation procedure done 6 years ago and I am suffering terribly. I can't sleep through most nights because it feels like back labor pains waking me up. This happens throughout the month with pain,cramps and nausea but more so intense pain when I would get my period but it never comes. I told my new GYN (old one retired) and he did not feel I needed a work up, Just told me to make sure I get exercise everyday (I am not considered overweight at 5'5" 140lbs size 8). Any helpful advise please - I am not feeling like a genius!- Thank you
