Hello my name is Cassandra I am 34 years old. I’m not sure if my problem is caused from my Essure, but I was not aware of the problems behind getting them and me and my bf asked so many questions. After my first born in 2002 I took birth control pills. But convinced on those. Had a little boy in 2005, I also conceived a girl in 2007. I’ve always had heavy period too. After my last pregnancy in 2011 I asked to have my tubes tied my insurance did not cover it only Essure. I refused. In the past three years I’ve had 3 miscarriages so bad that I’ve almost died in the er from blood loss. I asked my doctor after the last. One just to do a hysterectomy due to my heavy bleeding and miscarriages my body could not take it anymore he said no I was too young. Said he would do Essure and endometrial ablation day of surgery I was told he could only do essure then three months later ablation. It’s been five months since my Essure procedures. Constant back pain I chocked that up as from having spinal taps from child birth a lot of headaches, nausea, cold feet, numbness, every month I feel worse. My cycle is reg. Same day every month its heavy this month I started bleeding with clots a week aftsr my last one ended its heavier and my back and abdomen around my belly button hurts. I’m afraid to go to the Dr. Because in my head oh its nothing a lot of breast pain too. I smell weird things too to the point I got to search the house to find smell. I don’t know what to do? Bloating is an issue to .
Hi Cassandra! Unfortunately, you are one of the many women who suffer from the side effects of the eHELL coils. Partial or full hysterectomy is recommended to remove the eHELL coils. Read other stories, there are some doctors who are willing to help.
I have had so many issues lately that I think are caused by the Essure coils. I really feel like a hypochondriac, seriously. When I tell my doctor, she totally dismisses. I have always been very self aware when it comes to my body and I know something is off. Something is way off, Ive never been this unhealthy in my life. Bad procedure to have.
I have all same symptoms you described and no answers for years and many ER visits one after another no answers. How do i know if this is the issue?
I had Essure done July of 2010. My periods starting getting closer together and heavier. I am now having clots the size of a golf ball. Terrible! I went to the doctor last week and she said my uterus is swollen and my cervix is really low. Sex is painful and I look like I’m 4 months pregnant. Another issue I have is I can’t pass gas a lot of times and it is very painful. Does anyone else have these issues?
