Essure Vs. Mirena Posted: 01-08-08 21:11pm


Hello, Am considering the option of essure vs.Mirena IUD for birth control, read a lot of negative reviews about the mirena IUD, and my Dr. suggested the essure. Does anyone have any feedback about these methods of birth control. I am definitely done with having children, so the permanent solution of essure is not an issue other than 'no turning back' if there is a problem. Thanks! trisasla

If you want a permanent solution, go for it! Although Mirena is really great for many women, it's not permanent, and it does have hormones. Of course there's the paraguard IUD which has no hormones and lasts longer (10-12 years) If it were me and I was sure I was done, I'd get the permanent hormone free version.
