A member asked:

Is there a danger of 'over ablating' with novasure procedure. i have long term burning on the right side of vulva and anus after this procedure, why?

No: The novasure device has a fail-safe mechanism to prevent over cauterization. Burning externally is usually not related to an ablation. I would make an appointment and be evaluated to see if you have an infection or a tear.
