I had the Essure coils procedure done October of 2010. In March of 2012 I had already started the many doctors visits that would lead to me needing a hysterectomy! My periods had became so heavy I was beginning to become light headed, my cramps felt like I was being ripped apart, I had headaches, painful sex etc. My OB scheduled my hysterectomy for the following September, however due do things beyond my control, I lost my health insurance. So now 2 years later, I am still experiencing all of these aweful symptoms. I wouldn’t suggest the essure implants to my worst enemy.! I hope soon there will no longer be an Essure implant, because no woman deserves to go thru this.
