I had Essure after my 3rd child back in 2008. Every since then my cycle has been 9-14 days long and 9-11 days off, then starts again. The clots are as big as a plum to an orange and I have severe pain in my lower back and abdomen. I always have a headache that never goes away and I get the shakes and white spots when headaches are severe enough. I do not have insurance anymore so it’s a waiting game now.
