    Just a hour recovery time and that was only because I had general anesthesia for the ablation. Most times you can get essure done in the gyn office in 15 minutes and go on with your day. Follow up i'm 3 months to make sure it's working. Sent from my SGH-T989 using RNYTalk

  18. I'm going to attach the links to better explain the procedures. Now the essure is a semi new (tubal litigation) way to block up your tubes with coils that are supposed to scar your tubes. It takes up to 3 months to be effective. Novasure is typically used to stop heavy menstrual cycles or lighten them. My gyn suggested it since I don't like periods and loved when I had the iud. http://www.essure.com/ http://m.novasure.com/index.html Sent from my SGH-T989 using RNYTalk
