subject: Essure: Permanent Birth Control without the Surgery [print this page] Essure cannot be reversed, so be sure that you don't want children before undergoing the procedure for permanent birth control. No data is available showing that it is safe or effective to reverse Essure. Major surgery would be required to attempt to reverse the procedure and success outlooks are poor. Women younger than 30 have been shown to be more likely to regret sterilization, so if you are under 30 years, old, consider this decision carefully.
