I had my surgery 12/28/15. I have had the bloating and pain on and off also but I finally got an answer that makes since. 12/1/16 I had severe pain and I was sent for an ultrasound (showed nothing) and CT scan (showed nothing). On 2/1/17 I had the same severe pain again, another ultrasound showed a cyst and "something" on my uterus. The doctor reviewed my procedures and concluded that my uterus was trying to regrow the lining back or the top of it never burned off. My body is trying to have a period and can't so my body is trying try rid itself of the object ( pocket of blood) in my uterus by having contractions!!!! I have went through labor twice with no baby ( or epidural). I'm having a hysterectomy in 2 weeks to fix this. I hope this helps someone!
I had a Hysteroscopy and D & C done on 5/26/17. My cramps are still very painful and I woke up today VERY bloated like I am 6 months pregnant. I am still spotting a red/pink mucus. My back has been hurting since the surgery too. Is the back pain related to the procedure? I have been having hot flashes it seems like, I cannot go to bed without a ice pack behind my neck. Has anyone had this procedure done with these same results?
I had the same NovaSure in 09/2012 and now today 07/2017 I still feel like I am getting a period on a 28 day cycle. But no blood. Just bloat and cramps... I regret it as well because now I would like to conceive and I can't.
I have gained 6 lbs in water weight no one told me I would be blinded for this long or even at all.
Me too! I had mine done today and typically my stomach is pretty flat but now I seriously look 5-6 months pregnant! Is this normal? No one at the hospital mentioned this as a side effect! Makes sense but I wanna make sure it’s not bad.
WOW, good luck. I'm having all the same pain. I got my Nova Sure 10/16/2015 and in so much pain and heavy bleeding. I hope they tell me same thing. I cant keep taking off of work due to my pain. Natasha
I had ablation on 12/18/2017. Not sure if it was novasure. The cramps day one were horrible. Tolerable on day two and today is day three. I feel sluggish and crampy. Woozy and dizzy at times. Light pink discharge. But the bloating...
I came here because I searched for bloating after ablation. I feel a lot of pressure and uneasiness in my belly. It is clear by looking at my stomach that I’m bloated. I was not told this would happen. I hope it goes away soon. I feel really blah and it’s 5 days before Christmas! Had I thought or known or been advised that I would be this way, I would have held off till after the holidays.

I had the ablation done June 9, 2017.
Here I sit, Feb 1, 2018...11 days away from my hysterectomy.
The ablation leaves scars in 26% of women that causes labor pains and contractions.
I wish I would have known before the ablation that this was a risk.
The pain and cramping is so bad that the morphine I received in the hospital didn't even take the edge off... and I hate pain meds.
Anyone thinking about doing this, research the hell out of it. Because this pain can happen weeks, months, even years later.
I hope you all have found relief.

I had Novasure Done in July 2017, I would go to the gym every day, was eating better than usual, and since then I have gained 40 pounds. I don’t get my period anymore but my PMS symptoms are horrible, I gain 5-10 pounds of water weight, My good natured temperament turns to rage, cramps are horrible, and I’d probably eat a t**d if I was caramel filled, seriously the cravings are awful. I have gone to the OB, she had me try vitrex and primrose with no luck. The. She put me on antibiotic which mildly helped with the cramping but I still have it. I’ve been using the primrose and Vitrex for four months now and it hasn’t helped any. I am 39, and I know that the body goes through changes every seven years, but iim just round now!! This is insane! Has anyone had anything else help them? I take b6 daily vitamins folic acid... don’t know what to do at this point.
I had mine done oct. 2013 and still cramps hot flashes. It’s now feb 2018
I saw your post and I wanted to know if you have found the answer to your bloating. I have a dear friend that is going through the prolong bloating for the last four years.
I am the same. Now it's almost a year and it's come back the bloating and stabbing pain with backache and tempreature flu. I don't undetstand
I know you posted this a year ago, have you had any improvements? i had the ablation done 4/9 and today I am still bloated, more than I have ever been - I have always had a flat tummy and now my lower back is in constant pain and my stomach is so big and hard like you describe.
Hi ladies-
I had this done 4/9/2018, I am severely bloated, my lower back pain is nonstop, the bleeding hasn't stopped and the cramping is always there. I did this because i'd been on my period since 2/6/2018- was still bleeding at the time of the procedure, going on 3 months of the pain and bleeding.. except now, most of my dressed and clothes don't fit as they should and I've gained 1.5lb already in the first week. Please someone tell me there is improvement with time :(

I had my ablation done in dec 17 and since then although hardly any period, i get bloated and have severe cramps like labour pains, back ache and ache in upper legs, just like when i was in labour. Im due to have a scan and see the gyneacologist again in June. I wasnt told this was a possible side effect of operation so feel a bit cross, Was hysterectomy the only treatment available to stop this pain.
Any advise greatfully received. Hope you are the road to recovery
