  • B. If a pictorial blood loss assessment chart (PBLAC) scoring systems is used; a minimum PBLAC score of ≥150 for 3 months prior to study enrollment; OR, A minimum PBLAC score ≥150 for one month for women who either i. had at least 3 prior months documented failed medical therapy; or ii. had a contraindication to medical therapy; or iii. refused medical therapy

  • Endometrial hyperplasia as confirmed by histology
  • Presence of active endometritis

  • Previous endometrial ablation procedure
  • Currently on medications that could thin the myometrial muscle, such as long-term steroid use (except inhaler or nasal therapy for asthma)
  • Currently on anticoagulants
  • Abnormal or obstructed cavity as confirmed by hysteroscopy or SIS, specifically:
  • Septate or bicornuate uterus or other congenital malformation of the uterine cavity
  • Pedunculated or submucosal myomas distorting the uterine cavity
  • Polyps likely to be the cause of the subject's menorrhagia
  • Intramural or subserosal myomas that distort the uterine cavity
  • Presence of an intrauterine device (IUD) which the patient is unwilling to have removed at the time of the operative visit
  • Presence of an implantable contraceptive device (e.g. Essure or Adiana).
  • Subject currently on hormonal birth control therapy or unwilling to use a non-hormonal birth control post-ablation (including a Mirena device).
  • Subject who is within 6-weeks post partum.
  • Any general health condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, could represent an increased risk for the subject
  • Any subject who is currently participating or considers future participation in any other research of an investigational drug or device.
