study shows that nearly nine out of 10 women who underwent treatment for menorrhagia (heavy menstrual periods) with Uterine Balloon Therapy System five years ago have avoided hysterectomy.
Uterine Balloon Therapy System is used in a simple outpatient procedure that can be completed in under 30 minutes. During the procedure, a balloon catheter is inserted into the uterus and inflated with a small amount of sterile fluid that is heated and leave it for eight minutes to break down the uterine lining. When the treatment cycle is completed, the fluid is withdrawn from the balloon and the catheter is removed. Nothing stays in the uterus. The uterine lining has been treated and will slough off like a period in the next seven to 10 days. Women often return to their normal activity the day after treatment. , treatment will reduce menstrual bleeding to a moderate or light, manageable flow. Some women may experience spotting, while other women may stop bleeding altogether.
