Westside Women's Care Office Procedures
Westside Women's Care offers office procedures ranging from the Essure and Novasure procedure. We are dedicated to excellence in health care combined with an eye toward cost-effectiveness and state-of-the-art technology.
Essure
procedure:
The
Essure procedure is the first and only FDA approved female
sterilization procedure to have zero pregnancies in the clinical
trials. The Essure procedure is permanent and is NOT reversible.
Therefore, you should be sure you do not want children in the
future.
The Essure procedure is different than the traditional method of
a surgical tubal ligation. With Essure there is no cutting into
the body. Instead, an Essure trained doctor inserts spring-like
coils, called micro-inserts, through the body’s natural pathways
(vagina, cervix, and uterus) and into your fallopian tubes.
The procedure can be performed in your doctor’s office without
general anesthesia.

novasure
procedure:
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.
Without the side effects of hormones or the risks of
hysterectomy, NovaSure has a quick recovery time so you can get
back to your life sooner. Most women experience no pain after
the procedure, and can return to work and regular activities the
next day.
Do you suffer from heavy bleeding?
Does your menstrual cycle seem abnormally long or heavy? Are you
afraid of leaking through a pad or tampon? Have you been
diagnosed with anemia from blood loss? If so, you may have
menorrhagia (pronounced: men-o-rahj-ah).
Menorrhagia is defined as unusually heavy or long-lasting
menstrual periods. It occurs in 1 out of every 5 women. If you
believe that you might have excessive menstrual bleeding, speak
with a doctor after exploring this site to learn more about your
treatment options for heavy periods.
