Is novasure safe? the nurse said he tried to make device bigger to fit womb but couldn't so ablated all the right but not left. consultant denies this

Strange story: This sounds superficially like a potential legal issue and the best thing that you can do is to discuss this with the doctor and if not satisfied, find a second opinion from somebody who can examine you. The nurse is often not the best source of accurate info.

If novasure did not fit evenly into a womb would the procedure still go ahead and if so wouldnt it be dangerous to ablate one side more than the other?
