When it comes to effectively preventing unwanted pregnancies, women simply don’t have a lot of good options. Now, women who have turned to the permanent birth control procedure known as Essure in an effort to avoid the harmful effects of birth control pills, are finding that the alternative can actually be even worse.
Essure is a small device that is inserted by a doctor through a woman’s cervix into the Fallopian tubes. Over the course of a few months, it leads to the formation of scar tissue around the coils, which blocks sperm from getting to the eggs. The company’s website brags that most women can go home just 45 minutes after the procedure. There are no hormones in the coil; it’s 99 percent effective at preventing pregnancy; and no anesthesia is required.
On the surface, this sounds like a good choice for many women, but the reality is very different. First of all, the coils contain a nickel-titanium alloy that is a common allergen. While the packaging warns that this could lead to allergic reactions such as itching, hives or rash, many patients won’t end up seeing this warning, because the device is inserted by their physician – much like the warning labels on vaccines, which most patients also never see.
