I had the Essure procedure done in 2009 after my 3rd child. Due to the excessive scar tissue, my doctor wasn’t able to perform a tubal and suggested Essure since i was done having children. I have to admit ever since, my life hasn’t been the same. I’ve lost most of my precious hair it’s been thinning out uncontrollably, I’ve gained so much weight, can’t find energy to do the things I loved. My periods are very painful, excessive bleeding and clotting like I’ve never experienced before and the feeling of something poking my uterus. I can’t leave my house when on my period because I’ve had accidents in public due to the excessive bleeding. I’ve complained about it and the doctor suggested the dye test, which of course came out normal, so now nothing else can be done. Headaches, rashes, low libido, i can just go on but I’m tired of dealing with it.
