I got the Essure in August of 2012. I have not had a menstrual cycle since then. I get terrible headaches and migraines and I have recently started having symptoms like I am pregnant. These symptoms have made my day to day life extremely difficult and hard for me to take care of my family. I feel bad because my husband has taken on a lot more than usual because I can not function at my normal levels. I don’t know what I can do to make myself normal again. I thought this would make my families life easier but it hasn’t not even a little.
