I am so glad to hear that other women are having problems with this device! After my procedure, I had two months where I couldn’t sit up for more than a few minutes at a time. Then, slowly I started having severe abdominal pain, that got worse and worse. Intercourse also became impossible, due to a ripping, tearing pain in my belly. I have since had the coils, along with my fallopian tubes, removed. My pain seems to have remained, along with menopausal type symptoms and a worsening of my fibromyalgia. Please don’t chance the bad side effects!
