things are still going well for me. I had the procedure tuesday morning. I slept most of Tuesday.Did some easy chores and errands and took a nap during the day on Wednesday and then taught cycling that evening. I did take it easy though. Today i feel great. I taught cycling, ran 3 miles and swam 10 laps.
Prior to the procedure I had to use tampons every day (not my period) and have only had to use panty liners since the procedure (can't use tampons for 4 weeks)
I'm still a little tired. Of course, I was exhausted prior to the procedure assuming due to loss of blood. I'll take a nap again today.
It did sound like to me that an endemetrial biopsy is standard procedure for the doctors to do prior to the Novasure. I had mine done one week prior. I think that the basis is to rule out cancer. I would guess that cancer would be harder to diagnose after the lining is gone and I would also guess that if there was cancer, you would want to have the entire uterus removed rather than this procedure. But......you know the thing....I'm not a doctor.
Based on my limited knowledge, I would agree with what blueskies says about having the polyp out first then the ablation. but It seems like this could be done at the same time. ??
sorry we are confusing you.
I had wondered whether the vaginal hysterectomy would be a good option for me. I have an enlarged uterus. It's been that way since they started monitoring it's size. I blame this for the rounded belly that I can't get rid of with ab work. Now don't get me wrong, I'm proud of how my abs look, I can see my 6 pack, but my lower belly rounds out and nothing tightens it up. But after the tests that they did, there's no medical reason to have the uterus removed, it would just be cosmetic. So, for me, even though I'm not against cosmetic things (have implants) I'm not ready to go that route. So far it looks like the novasure will be good for me.
