Hello,
I had the Essure procedure done in April 2012 after my 3rd child was born Oct 2011. I have read a ton about people who are going through so many problems because of Essure. I assumed nothing like that would ever happen to me as I have never had any problems from the procedure. Everything went smooth and painless. I never had any extra pain or bleeding and my periods have always been short and simple. This last week I noticed that I am urinating quite frequently. A UTI was ruled out, and now I’m having abdominal pain, some back pain, and breast tenderness. I’m only about a week ‘late’ but sometimes I have periods every 4-6 weeks. I am hoping that is the case here but I’m terrified I’m pregnant again. Will be taking a test tomorrow morning to see what comes up.
