Essure is a permanent, non-surgical birth control method available at Springfield Clinic.

A procedure performed with mild pain medication during an office visit, the Essure method works with the woman’s body to create a permanent barrier against pregnancy. For women who have completed their family and desire to prevent unplanned pregnancy in the future, Essure offers these advantages over other birth control methods:

• No incision
• No general anesthetic
• No lost work time, a short office procedure
• No hormones
• No guessing – reliability can be confirmed
• Minimal to no discomfort

Patients are in the office an average of 90 minutes.

With Essure, you'll never have to worry about unplanned pregnancy again. Essure is 99.8% effective with zero pregnancies, making it the most effective form of permanent birth control available. The Essure procedure is permanent and is NOT reversible. Therefore, you should be sure you do not want children in the future.
