Her Option® Cryoablation

In-Office Comfort and Convenience

Her Option^® Cryoablation Therapy is an in-office treatment option for excessive menstrual bleeding (menorrhagia) that ablates endometrial tissue through sub-zero temperatures, using ultrasound guidance to monitor the safety and extent of treatment.

Her Option is a treatment for menorrhagia where the natural anesthetic effects of cold eliminate the need for IV sedation in most cases, and allows you to treat your patient in your office. In an office setting, both you and your patient benefit. Your patient relaxes in the comfort of a familiar setting, and you avoid scheduling issues and long waits in the operating room.

The Her Option system is designed to be comfortable, safe, effective and easy to use. Highlights of the system include:

Significantly reduces and, in some women, totally eliminates bleeding²
Provides a consistent depth of tissue destruction up to 12 mm¹
Ultra-thin 5.5 mm probe facilitates placement with minimal to no cervical dilation
Ultrasound monitoring helps provide a safe margin between the CryoZone and the uterine serosal surface
Offers total control at your fingertips
Can be completed under local or light anesthesia
Does not require painful stimuli such as distention of the uterine cavity or extreme heat
No danger of harmful fluid imbalance
100% latex free
Patients can expect rapid recovery and return to normal activity
Clinical studies document a significant improvement in quality of life¹
