Question: I had a XXXXXXX sure endometrial ablation procedure performed last Friday, and have some concerns about possible weight gain post procedure. I have read quite a few postings of women of all ages experiencing weight gain ( some significant ) after having the XXXXXXX sure procedure performed, and I would like to know, firstly, what would cause this weight gain, and secondly, if I could possibly expect to incur this weight gain in the future. I am 46 years old and have been experiencing very erratic periods the last year or so, thus prompting me to go to an OBGYN. My periods have been running as often as every two weeks, up to every 6 or 7 weeks throughout the year. My periods were not significantly heavy, as many of the women I have read have this procedure performed, but very erratic, and my body was in a constant state of pre period bloating, due to discovering I have a “fluffy” uterine lining. This was discovered after having an ultrasound and biopsy prior to the XXXXXXX sure ablation procedure. I have also started taking Evamil spray and progesterone pills daily about a month ago, after blood tests determined a hormonal imbalance. Taking everything above into consideration, can I expect to gain weight after my endometrial ablation?

Hello,
The procedure was performed in a clinic setting, and yes, I was given an IV under general anesthesia.
My weight had not been increasing, and in fact, I have lost about 15 pounds prior to having the procedure April 26, 2013. I was put on hormones mainly to regulate my mood swings and PMS symptoms.

Yes, thank you, that did answer my question relating to the Novasure procedure. In reference to the hormones ( Evamist and Progesterone ), would talking these have the possible side effect of weight gain, either short or long term? I have been taking both for about a month, and so far I have not experienced any weight gain, but I I am not suer if it is too soon to tell.
