Female Sterilization (Essure)
The Essure procedure is a non-incisional surgical procedure that involves placing a small, flexible device into each fallopian tube. Body tissue then grows into the micro-inserts, blocking the fallopian tubes and preventing sperm from reaching and fertilizing the egg. Please visit http://www.essure.com/ for more information.
Dr. Tom Ross performs the Essure procedure at our Family Practice Center in Des Moines.
The benefits of Essure:
- No incisions are required.
- Can be performed without general anesthesia.
- Does not contain hormones.
- Almost 100 percent effective.
- Patients can return to work within 24 hours and return to normal activities in 1 to 2 days.
