Essure

I'm scheduled to have this procedure and some type of scrapping of my walls to slow down our stop periods done on Nov 12. I had my RNY on Oct 15. Has anyone had this done?

The ablation would be good for you then.

I had the Endometrial Ablasion done in January of this year. It is not like having a mini hystorectomy at all. You still have all your parts and they should still function the same minus the heavy bleeding that for most never stopped . After my ablasion, my period stopped. It is possible to still have a baby, but it is dangerous. They did not burn the ends of my tubes at all. I suggest Googling it because there are videos that show you exactly whats happens! Good luck!!!!! :o)

That is why I got the essure along with it.

I'm scheduled for the Essure this morning at 11:00. However, I've read some real horror stories about this procedure. Aspiring Evangelist (or anyone), can you tell me if it has caused you any issues and/or if it's impacted your weight loss efforts? I'm 9 weeks out and losing at a slow/moderate rate. Thanks

It's been 5 months since I have had my essure and ablation. Recovery time was one day, light bleeding. Was at the gym the next day. No problems so far.

I'm going to look into this again since the 1st md wanted to put neon depo. I want no period or much less not a depo shot and take a chance in becoming fat
