I am glad to hear I am not the only one having issues with Essure…
I was 40 years old when I had my procedure done..prior to that i was doing the three month shot depo provera..Both my children were grown and I was tired of having a shot, so I thought this was the easy way to go..I had the procedure done and oh my gosh it hurt so bad…For the first couple weeks I had pain, then it let up..When I have a period I bleed like no other, and the pain is unbearable. I feel comfortable curled in a ball or sitting on the toilet.
So this is four years in and now it is worse, since August this year I have not had a period, but cramps are excruciating. I took a home pregnancy test and it said negative.. And weight gain is bad, I have put on almost one hundred pounds, and sex is painful,,If things don’t Change by December I am going to the doctor..,Thank you for listening. Melodie
