The NovaSure procedure is a quick, safe, simple, one-
time endometrial ablation treatment. This minimally invasive
procedure controls heavy bleeding by using energy to remove the lining of the uterus. The average treatment time is about 90 seconds 1, and only needs to be performed once to lighten or stop your periods. No pretreatment drugs are required and NovaSure can be performed in the hospital or in your doctor's office.
