While oral contraceptives may be an appropriate option for some patients, the typical use failure rate is approximately 8%1. The 3-year failure rate shown in the clinical trial for Adiana Permanent Contraception is 1.6% which is comparable to tubal ligation. The Adiana hysteroscopic procedure is minimally invasive and requires no incisions or general anesthesia, allowing most patients to return to normal activities within a day. Adiana Permanent Contraception eliminates the burden of taking pills, including the hormonal side effects.
