Hello, I’m 33 years old and had Essure put in dec of 2012. I thought at first that this was a great choice, but since I have had them I get really bad back aches. They would come and go and in August of 2014 I went to the doc they did x-ray and found nothing. I then just kept going on day by day with some pain, went to chiropractor. That only helped a little. Well I recently went back in to the doctor, because the pain is so bad. They took a x ray and I have inflammation around my spine which is pushing my spine out. I have attached a picture of what it looks like right now. I asked my doc if it is the Essure she didn’t know what to say. Now after much thought I’m sure I’m going to get my coils removed and my tubes. I just have to save some time off of work. I regret ever getting them and I should have tied my tubes. Think of the coils as a sliver that has entered your body, I believe that my body is trying to get rid of the coils, because they are a foreign object. Beware ladies don’t get Essure. I hope and pray that I can get them out soon. My kids need me to be able to run with them and not be in pain anymore.

Tell all your friends and colleagues at work NOT to get the Essure. Good thing you share your story here so other women can learn from you! I hope you’ll get fine soon and play with your kids again.
I had severe symptoms- hot flashes, insomnia, tingling in my limbs, severe weight gain. I feel that it was like I was menopausal at 28. Please keep an eye on yourself. One of the coils embedded in my pelvic muscle and caused additional health issues. It was my choice to go with Essure, but it was a bad decision. I really hope you stay healthy.
