I had the essure procedure carried out in the UK a couple of years ago and i regret it every day.I had been undergoing IVF treatment and after 2 failed cycles my doctor suggested the essure technique to block my tubes as I had fluid in them and the essure would prevent the fluid leaking out. After having the procedure I went on to have another failed IVF attempt and have since given up.Every month I suffer from excruciating pain where I believe the implants are,the pain is so bad it actually takes my breath away and feels like someone is jabbing me with red hot pokers,when it comes on i actually cant move for the few seconds it is happening as the pain is so intense.My health has I believe deteriorated considerably since having the implants,I constantly feel tired and ill and this has only happened since I had the essure done.If I could I would have them out tomorrow but can’t find anywhere in the UK that does this.I wish I had researched essure fully before having the procedure as it is a decision I will regret for the rest of my life.
