ESSURE is a permanent birth control; it is a procedure that works with the body to create a natural barrier against pregnancy. This procedure requires very little assistance from the MA. The medical assistant has clean, sterile instruments ready for physician and in arms reach, at the correct position. With ESSURE there is no cutting, no anesthetic, no recovery time, no hormones, and no chances of pregnancy, with very little procedure time (13 minutes). A medical assistant confirms with the patient that the procedure will prevent from pregnancy permanently, and that the patient is completely confident with the decision. ESSURE is permanent and NOT reversible. The physician inserts a small flexible micro-insert through the body’s natural pathways (vagina, cervix, and uterus) and into the fallopian tubes. During three months following the procedures, the body and the micro-inserts will work together to form a natural barrier that prevents sperm from reaching the egg. During the three month period, advice the patient to continue using another form of birth control, other than the IUD. During the three months the physician will perform an ESSURE Confirmation Test, to confirm that the tubes are fully blocked and that the patient can rely on the implant completely. ESSURE does not contain hormones to interfere with patient’s menstrual cycle. The patient’s periods should more or less continue in their natural
