A member asked:

Is there any possibility that i'm pregnant? i had the essure (permeant birth control) about 3 years ago. my period is 5 days late, and i've been spotting off and on for about 2 weeks. i do not have any pregnancy symptoms, or any symptoms that i might b

A doctor has provided 1 answer

The : The essure is a very effective means of birth control, but as this is a change for you it would be reasonable to take a pregnancy test to be sure. If you continue having irregular bleeding or spotting then it would be reasonable to have a gynecological evaluation. Please be sure your pap is up to date also.
