Essure is still considered a relatively new form of female sterilization or birth control. Many Women have opted for this Procedure because of its convenience. The procedure can be performed right in the doctor’s office. There is no surgery involved and the recuperation time is minimal. Because many women hold full time employment or have a family they like the idea that there is no surgery involved leading to less “down time”.
Essure consists of a small coil like object that is very small. Coils are placed into each of the Fallopian Tubes and then scar tissue forms around the coils causing the fallopian tubes to become blocked. The procedure is done from entering the vagina then through the cervix into the fallopian tubes. Although women may feel cramping many say the discomfort is tolerable. The doctor performing the procedure can see what is taking place while watching on a monitor to make sure the spring-like coils are placed correctly. After the procedure is complete the patient is instructed to use another form of birth control for three months. At the three-month mark the patient then goes for a test to make sure the fallopian tubes are completely blocked with scar tissue. This test is called a hysterosalpingogram or HSG. Once the tubes are completely blocked there is no need for a second birth control method.
The company that makes Essure states there are little to no side effects to the Essure Procedure and coils. It is still considered new and there does not seem to be much data to be found as of it. As time goes on there will be more results and more women who come forward with issues concerning the procedure. Essure is considered irreversible.
As of late there seem to be women stepping forward and writing about issues they are having after having the Essure procedure. Many are seeking removal of the devices and are either being told that it is impossible to have Essure Removal or that a full hysterectomy will be needed.
Women are having the following problems after the Essure procedure:
- Pain where the cols are located.
- Unexplained joint pain.
- Metallic taste in mouth.
- Skin rashes.
- Painful intercourse.
- Lethargy
These are just a few of the examples put forth and there are more women posting daily.
Having a full hysterectomy is not the solution to Essure removal. The Tubal Reversal experts at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center have been reversing the Essure procedure successfully using a procedure called tubouterine implantation. There is no need to have to go through a major surgery and have a full hysterectomy.
Patients that have had the Essure removal are reporting that signs and symptoms subside almost immediately.
