A member asked:

I had the novasure procedure several years ago, why am i bleeding after sex now?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

This is not uncommon: It is not uncommon to have some bleeding after an endometrial ablation. In some cases regular periods may return after several months or years. It is more common to have light bleeding. Cramping after sex may release retained blood from your uterus. You should discuss this with your doctor at a future visit.
