I had the Essure coils implanted in January of 2009. I had severe pain after the HSG test. The past five years, I’ve had extremely painful periods, huge blood clots, intermittent pulsating sensations in my stomach, and skin problems to include severe acne and chronic hives. The most disturbing thing is that this month, my period is a week late for the first time since the procedure. I’m too scared to take a pregnancy test right now, but I’ve been feeling nauseous. I’m not sure if it’s psychosomatic.
