I had this procedure done almost 8 years ago and I wish I never had. I was the first in my town to have it done so they didn’t know a lot. I have had horrible periods and cramping, migraines 4-5 times a month, I have lost 3 babies and think i am going through early menopause at age 29. If I sit for a while or in a certain way i feel like my tubes were pinched and then being ripped apart. I wish I could afford to have them taken out or some kind of procedure to help but I don’t have that kind of money. I would tell anyone wanting birth control to definitely DO NOT GET THIS! I have no sex drive and if I do sex honestly hurts and makes my husband feel bad cause he cant fix it in anyway.
