Dear Erin,
My name is Adriane, im 26 with 2 children. I had the essure coils placed back in Aug 2012. Since then I have had bad cramps, headaches, stomach issues, pain, my menstrual cycle is all sorts of a mess along with other issues. I have addressed my Dr who placed them and he pretty much gave me two options….he wants to either shave the lining of my uterus to supposedly help with the pain or a hysterectomy…at 26 I really dont want a hysterectomy and I dont see what shaving thd lining would help. I’m currently looking for a second opinion but at the same time im almost afraid to for the fear of not being heard..any other women going thru this?What did they do?
P.s I am also allergic to nickle and dr knew but I was not told the implant has nickle init until afterwards…
