Thermachoice gynecare uterine balloon therapy system
Gynecare Thermachoice Uterine Balloon Therapy System is a minimally invasive treatment developed to reduce excessive menstrual bleeding in pre-menopausal women who are having heavy periods due to benign causes. It is a Uterine Balloon Therapy (UBT) System where a thermal balloon ablation device is used to ablate the endometrial lining of the uterus in women with Menorrhagia after childbearing is complete. It is an outpatient procedure that ablates the endometrium lining. For most women, it treats heavy bleeding. Very little of the endometrium grows back and heavy bleeding is much less likely to continue.
Treatment time is only 8 minutes, it is simple to perform and requires no hospital stay. It uses heat to treat the endometrium (the lining of the uterus) and can be performed under local anesthetic. It requires no incision and minimal pain is felt by the patient. Unlike a hysterectomy, Gynecare Thermachoice allows a patient to preserve their uterus.
