The Acessa™ System For Treatment of Uterine Fibroids
Fibroids are a real pain, causing heavy periods, bloating, and more. If you suspect you have uterine fibroids or have already been diagnosed with them, the Acessa® procedure is a treatment option that lets you keep your uterus intact. The medical term for the Acessa procedure is laparoscopic radiofrequency ablation (Lap-RFA). Essentially, the do

ctor delivers heat directly into the fibroid causing it to shrink over time and, in turn, relieve your symptoms. Most patients are cleared to go home within 2 hours and are usually ready to return to work after 4 to 5 days. As with any medical procedure, there are potential risks to consider and discuss with your doctor when making your treatment decision.

If your jeans feel like they fit tighter during your period, you’re not imagining it. 👖🎈

Bloating is often caused by the hormonal fluctuations that happen during your menstrual cycle. For many women, it’s an uncomfortable but familiar monthly experience.

However, bloating that’s persistent and comes with heavy bleeding and pelvic pain could be a sign of a uterine health condition like fibroids. Talk to a Hologic Nurse Advocate and learn about potential treatment options: https://ow.ly/iFlJ50YLqbj

When it comes to symptomatic uterine fibroids, hysterectomy might not be your only treatment option. Let’s talk about a minimally invasive solution. 💬

Only you and your doctor can decide the treatment that’s right for you. But know that you have options that might better fit your lifestyle and health goals than a major surgery.

“Everyone in our family has heavy periods.”

Have you heard that before? When the women in your life tell you that what you experience is normal, it can be hard to imagine anything different. But just because heavy periods are common among your family and friends doesn’t mean you have to suffer through them.

Normalized doesn’t mean normal. In fact, symptoms like disruptive bleeding, intense cramps, and bloating could be signs of a uterine health issue like fibroids.

If you plan your life around that time of the month, better is possible.

Countless menstrual hygiene products + hours spent planning life around a heavy flow = more just than a monthly inconvenience. 🗓️

If your period is running your life, better is possible. Ask your doctor about the NovaSure® procedure. It’s a non-hormonal option for premenopausal women with heavy periods who aren’t looking to get pregnant.

If something in your body feels off, you’re allowed to speak up. Even if you’ve been told your symptoms are “normal.” 📢

Discomfort, disruption, and pain are not requirements of womanhood. Having a conversation with a doctor can open the door to care that fits your needs. And remember, getting a second opinion doesn’t mean you don't trust your provider. It’s you being an advocate for your health.

If you’re someone who has found relief, what advice would you give to women about seeking care?
