I had the Essure procedure about 5 years ago. Since then I have experienced unexplained abdominal dissension, excessive bloating, occasional extreme lower internal abdominal pain, and at times extreme fatigue. I have also been diagnosed with Hypothyroidism, which for my healthy lifestyle, nutrition, and fitness should NOT have come about. I have been puzzled by all this happening to me in the last few years. I have an 11 year old, but even after my pregnancy my abdomen returned to the flat prepregnance I had…So to have had it change so drastucally after having the procedure seems ironic.
I would like to know more about the possibility of the Essure being the culprit and learning what I can do to better address these issues. I thought it was all ‘in my head’ or just bouts of IBS but intuition has told me otherwise in the last few months and then as ii started to reserch it, I came on this website. Something needs to be done and I would like to be a part of that mission!
