Hello, my name is Brittney and I have been researching here recently about the devastating side effects from the Essure procedure.
I got mine done in 2010 soon after my son was born, was told that it was a good form of birth control. I was told by my Doctor that for the first month I might experience discomfort, but it would go away.
I am upset because 2 years later I still periodically experience sharp pain on my right side of my stomache! I get migraines occasionally, and I discovered that I cannot go to the bathroom as easily anymore.
It was so painful to go to the bathroom one day that I actually almost fainted!! I am concerned for my health and for other women! My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone!
