I had the Mirena IUD and the doctor said he’d try and leave it in if he was able to get the Essure coils in around it. Alas, my IUD was completely blocking my fallopian tubes and had to be removed.

My skin was a bit of a wreck. I’ve been continuing on with the OCM and it’s clearing up pretty quickly, so that’s nice at least.

I wonder if you (I) could continue your (my) current form of birth control for the time leading up the Essure procedure? I’ve heard great things, but having to take a pill for three months would be the breaking point for me.

Also, how does your skin look? As I’m in hormonal breakout hell right now, OCM looks more and more promising.

My insurance covered it completely, since I had met my maximum out of pocket for last year. Otherwise, it was covered 80% after the deductible. I think my part would have been $300ish. The only reason I did it instead of having Gerald get a vasectomy is that it was cheaper for me to do it.

I am really interested in the Essure procedure. I am NOT interested in alternate birth control for 3 month, but I DO think I’m ready for something permanent. HMM. Did your insurance cover it? How much is it? IS THIS ANY OF MY BUSINESS? NO, NO IT IS NOT.

First, congrats on feeling good and unconflicted about your decision. And second, tell me more of this procedure! Cause yeah, after this FOURTH baby, I think we’re both about done here. Husband is still annoyingly squicked out about the vasectomy idea (don’t get me STARTED on the fairness of that) so I told him if he doesn’t do it, I’ll do something, then. So he can decide whether he wants a few days of discomfort or for me to have something to eternally hold over his head!

I think guilt is, for the most part, a supremely useless emotion. And I envy your contentment. I think you’re lucky…and then I wonder if that is bad.

Hm.
