Does NovaSure Cause Weight Gain?

Curious about potential weight gain after novasure. I had my procedure done 3 weeks ago and have put on 4 pounds. This is odd since I workout 4 times a week and have for months. I watch what I eat and have been consistently dropping 3-4 pounds a month.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
NovaSure endometrial ablation is a unique technique which uses radio-frequency impedance-based technology, and delivers a customized treatment to lighten or end heavy menstrual bleeding.
Side effects, which could be temporary may include cramping, nausea, vomiting, discharge and spotting. Weight gain is not a known side effect associated with NovaSure.
Kindly consult your doctor and get evaluated about this problem as it could be due to some other cause.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
