Essure and Tubal Ligation.....A Great Team!

This is a PERMANENT way for sterilization and you should not want anymore children.

The HUGE benefit that this procedure provides is no incisions and most of the time it can be done at the doctor's office with just local anesthesia.

Although it takes 90 days to become effective, there is no recovery time involved. That means no missed work or activities.

After 90 days, a X-ray study is performed to show complete blockage of the tube.

It has a very high success rate of 99.8% and does not involve hormones.

Who Should Consider Getting This Procedure?

Anybody!!

But consider these situations:

  • I don't want general anesthesia for my tubal ligation procedure
  • I have a chronic disease (like diabetes, blood clots, or cancer) in which surgery is more risky.
  • I don't want to take any hormones for birth control.
  • I'm tired of my partner not getting his vasectomy, and I don't want any incisions.
  • I don't have any sick-days left at work.
  • I'm considering an endometrial ablation and need permanent sterilization.
  • Does Insurance Pay For It?

    Most of the time, insurances will cover the procedure with an office co-pay.

    However, not all insurances cover tubal ligation so be sure and check with your insurance company.

    Please feel free to make an appointment with me if you are interested in getting this procedure done.

    I do it in my office for your convenience or it can be arranged as a day surgery if the patient desires.
