I am having heavy bleeding,and long & painful periods that last for 15days to a month this has been going on since 2005. I have had an D&C, IUD, Tubal Ligation,& Norethindrone medication & now the doctor wants to try & do an ablation. I am just sick of all of this and would like to just get an hysterectomy I'm only 28 & their get an hysterectomy I'm only 28 & their refusing I DO NOT WANT ANYMORE KIDS EVER what can I do. refusing I DO NOT WANT ANYMORE KIDS EVER I already have 3, what can I do?
I am also thinking about getting this procedure done in my doctor's office while awake. He told me he would give me 2 valium, 2 percocet, a lidocaine shot down there as well as rub lidocaine jelly on the inside. Do you think this would be sufficient for the 90 second procedure? Wondering what you took for your procedure? Any feedback would be welcome if you could email me back at: ***@****
Had the Novasure procedure done in the doctor's office yesterday. Took a valium and vicodin beforehand, given a shot in the arm before as well. This was probably the MOST PAINFUL experience of my life (I have 3 kids). After taking the above medication and then given 2 internal shots to numb the area, I had to ask them to stop and give me 2 more! This was before the procedure even really started! I have a fairly high pain tolerance,but OMG this was the most TERRIBLE 93 seconds of my life!!!!!!!!! Hopefully the results will be worth it. On the positive side, as soon as the instruments are removed and the procedure ends, it immediately just feels like menstrual cramps.
I went in to have novasure this last friday. They took out my mirena and did the d and c they found polyps they removed those. They went to deploy the novasure and poked a hole in my uterus. My doc said my uterus is to small that is why it happened. I now have 8weeks of recovery for the hole in my uterus and didnt get the ablation done with the novasure which is what I went in for. Hopefully my uterus can heal and i dont have any internal bleed... Ifit doesnt heal and/or i have internal bleeding i will have to go infor a repair surgery. if my heavy periods come back my dic said my only option is to have a hysterectomy... I hope all of you thar are looking into novasure or have it done have a better experience than i did...
had the procedure done 2 weeks ago. I am 56 and still having reg heavy periods. I had had enough. I had it done in the dr's office and yes it hurt a little but only lasted 90 sec. nothing compared to the kidney stones i have had. but I have had constant cramping since the procedure and bleeding just like a period. I have to change pads every 2 hours. I also am so tired. Not sure I thought this is what would happen. I am going to wait few more weeks before giving full opinion. just very tired of the bleeding.
I had the procedure done 2 years ago and it has really worked for me. I have a light period that lasts one to two days, where as before it lasted 4 to 5 days of heavy bleeding. It was to the point that when i stood up at work that it flooded my clothes. The procedure itself was painless and I really didn't even take the pain medication afterwards. I would recommend this procedure. I was scared at first but I had enough and decided to go through with it. I really have had no problems since then. My friend had it too and it has changed her life also. I say it really works. I read all the reveiws before I had mine and I'm glad that I chose to have it done.
