After having her tubes ligated, a woman does not need to use any form of birth control to avoid pregnancy. Tubal ligation is almost 100% effective for the prevention of conception. The possibility for treatment failure is very low--fewer than one in 200 women (0.4%) will become pregnant during the first year after sterilization. Failure can happen if the cut ends of the tubes grow back together; if the tube was not completely cut or blocked off; if a plastic clip or rubber band is loose or comes off; or if the woman was already pregnant at the time of surgery.

Did anyone have a bad experience with the Essure procedure? During the procedure the Dr. said I had a spasm in my tubes. It has been very painful since with back and abdominal pain, headaches. The Dr. never mentioned this many problems.

For a doctor to refuse to do a tubal ligation on a young woman (18-35) because she might change her mind the same sort of offence as a doctor refusing to do an abortion on a young woman, also because she may regret it in the future?
