Permanent Birth Control Procedure

2022-01-03Updated: 2022-04-28 Mansfield Miracles, Paul Daum, M.D.

There has been a good bit of advertising recently about the Essure method of tubal sterilization. Essure is not new, and has been on the market for a number of years. The Essure method of sterilization requires placement of a device in each tubal opening, where it opens into the uterus.  An inflammatory response by your body causes the tube to gradually scar shut.  This process takes three to six months, sometimes longer. The Essure devices are placed into the tubal openings through the vagina using a special hysteroscope.  A hysteroscope is a thin fiberoptic scope used to look into the... Read The Rest

2022-01-03Updated: 2022-04-28 Mansfield Miracles, Paul Daum, M.D.

You can feel your stomach and notice that the uterus is hard, and as the contraction eases, the uterus becomes soft again. Contractions are... Read The Rest

Pregnancy after 35 is very common today

2022-01-03Updated: 2022-04-28 Mansfield Miracles, Paul Daum, M.D.

Pregnancy after 35 can pose some special concerns. If your health is good, you should be able to have a successful pregnancy. More common problems that may develop such as diabetes and hypertension can be managed medically. The specific age related issues are related to increased risk of chromosomal birth defects.

The increased risk is gradual with increasing age, but becomes progressively greater after age 35.  The approximate risk at age 35 is 1/270, at 40 is 1/100 and... Read The Rest
