Essure®
Women
seeking permanent birth control now have a minimally invasive option
with Essure®. Unlike tubal ligation (getting the 'tubes tied') and
vasectomy, the Essure® procedure involves no incisions or anesthesia.
There are no punctures, burning or tying. Instead, spring-like coils
are inserted through the body’s natural pathway (vagina, cervix and
uterus) and into the fallopian tubes.
The
body works with the micro-inserts to form a tissue barrier that
prevents sperm from reaching the egg, giving you a birth control method
you can rely on. Essure® is 99.8 percent effective and covered by
most insurance plans. Women who want a birth control that does not
contain hormones and who are not candidates for traditional tubal
ligations are good candidates for Essure.
