Shonabear... What's the recovery time on essure?

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.

Like heavy bleeding or long cycles.

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

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
