Other options: Most people find an endometrial ablation slightly uncomfortable. If you found it very painful then you may not be a good candidate for an in office Novasure due to a low pain tolerance. Novasure is more uncomfortable than a biopsy. You may want to ask to have it done under general anesthesia in a hospital.
