NovaSure
The NovaSure procedure, which uses an electric current, is a quick, safe, simple, one-time endometrial ablation treatment which gently removes the lining of the uterus to control heavy bleeding. An advance in women's health, the ablation is completed in about 90 seconds and only needs to be performed once to lighten or stop your periods. Without the side effects of hormones or the risks of hysterectomy, NovaSure is a minor procedure, with a quick recovery time so you can go on with your life sooner. With more than 400,000 patients treated to date, NovaSure is proven safe and successful.
No pretreatment drugs are required and NovaSure can be performed in the convenience of Dr. Roth's office. Most women experienced no post-procedural pain and return to work and regular activities the next day.
Following the NovaSure procedure, clinical trials have demonstrated that more than 9 out of 10 women will have no period or lighter than normal periods. By eliminating or lightening your period, menstual cramps will be significantly decreased. This is a simple office procedure often paid for by your medical insurance.

Gynecare ThermaChoice
The GYNECARE THERMACHOICE Uterine Balloon Therapy System is a one-day treatment option designed to end heavy menstrual flows by removing the lining of the uterus.
This medical device resolves heavy menstrual periods (clinically known as menorrhagia) due to benign causes in premenopausal women who have completed childbearing. Unlike hysterectomy, which takes out the entire uterus, this procedure only treats the lining of the uterus with heat through a process called endometrial ablation.
GYNECARE THERMACHOICE has been used by physicians for 10 years and has been used in more than half a million women worldwide. It is now being used during a minimally invasive 8-minute treatment that can be performed with a local anesthetic in the convenience of Dr. Roth's office, eliminating the need to go to the hospital and making it easier to schedule it into your busy life. Recovery is fast and most women can return to their normal activities by the next day.

"Her Option" Cryoablation
This ablation procedure uses a cyroprobe that freezes the endometrium causing it to be destroyed and scars the lining of the uterus resulting in lighter or no periods. There is no down time with this procedure, and patients can return to normal activity within 24 hours of the procedure.
