    Mud, did you look at the Novasure website?

    Hi Zen, yes, and it said nothing of using the procedure for polyps. However I was a little confused when folks were talking about things other than what the website showed. For example, Silver was referring to biopsy and I wasn't clear. I wasn't sure if it's typical to have an endometrial biopsy taken automatically prior to the procedure anyway or if it was because of a polyp. If so then I missed the post. I know when you actually do have polyps removed they send it to pathology. And then about the procedure - you mentioned laproscopy and so it sounds like there were different variants in terms of when you might use it and what kind of anesthesia.

    Also, my diagnosis, in the form of a letter, said that I had an endometrial polyp, singular not plural and loaded with them. I don't know if there are minimum conditions - the website says nothing about less complicated polyps and from what blueskies mentioned it may not be suitable. I'll find out soon enough. Well, not actually soon enough.
