| How Essure Works |
Essure involves the placement a soft-micro insert into the fallopian tube through a vaginal approach. Once in place, the inserts form a barrier that blocks the fallopian tubes. Because general anesthesia is not essential, you can leave the doctor’s office in less than an hour after the procedure. |
|
| Take Control |
On average, men take about seven years from the first thought of obtaining a vasectomy to completing the procedure .
With Essure, women can easily take control of contraception and their lifestyles. You now have the power to prevent an unplanned pregnancy and gain the peace of mind that comes with true security. And, you can make this decision without suffering the inconvenience and surgical stress of a tubal ligation or hysterectomy.
