i did some research on the Nova Sure which is also called endometrial abilation... this can be quite effective but is not a cure for endometriosis. you also have to be very careful to use birth control as often tubal pregnancy is possible.
one week ago, i had a hysterectomy... i suffered with endometriosis for more than half of my life. and the last ten years were full of 2 surgeries, 5 and a half years of birth control, and lupron 4 years ago...
sometimes we as women have to make hard choices regarding our bodies. whether it is Nova Sure or some other procedure... NS will cause a lot less pain. some women say that it is like labor pain... they give you darvocet or vicoden to help with that.
... most of what i have read says this procedure works more successfully on older women. not sure how old you are. i am 32.
i believe it is an outpatient procedure.
What is it?
