Could I still be pregnant?

	Asked by dipsy20 (Female; 43; first pregnancy at 39 years old, baby delivered by c-section ) on Wed 04, Mar 2009 04:17am Priced at $0.00
	I had the novasure procedure carried out in September 2008 and the consultant told me that he had left about 5% of the lining in the uterus. I had the procedure carried out because I had prolonged periods. I also have fibroids in the uterus and did have until a scan in January 2009 a cyst on one of my ovaries. I have now missed a period and have pregnancy symptoms, e.g. frequent trips to the toilet, nausea, swollen breasts, darkening of the nipples, tiredness etc but have carried out 3 pregnancy tests and they are all showing negative. Can you advise if I am likely to be pregnant but perhaps the fibroids have something to do with the test results showing negative?

	Answer by Dr Veena, MD (doctor) on Wed 04, Mar 2009 06:50am: Nova Sure is a one time simple procedure which involves endometrial ablation, to reduce heavy bleeding in patients who have a heavy menstrual period or premenstrual symptoms. Usually it is done in patient’s who have completed their family. After the procedure, it may lighten or stop your periods. Side effects include cramping, nausea, vomiting, discharge, and spotting. So, the procedure itself could be the reason for missed periods, consult your doctor for further assistance.
