Hi, I am 35 yrs old and had the essure procedure since 2006, 6 weeks after I had my daughter. I have had nothing but problems the procedure. First, it was the heavy bleeding for 3 and a half weeks out of the month with cramping that was unbeareable. I went back to the dr several times and they kept telling me everything was fine (several dr’s). Second, was the weight gain, I am still trying to control it. Third, headaches, I might go 1 or 2 days out of a month not having a headache. Fourth, having sex with my husband is very painful still till this day. So after several years of having all these issues in 2011, I had a procedure done to stop the bleeding, but I still have all the other issues. About a year after the last procedure started spotting and now again have the cramping and sometimes heavy bleeding (like big chunks of blood clots). I am now looking to get a complete hystorectomy (which I do not want) so maybe I can been done with all these issues. I have lived a very miserable life since I had the essure procedure done and I do not recommend it to anyone.
