Well I had twins two years ago and that made four kids for me. Well the doctor recommended me to do the Essure no pain, less time to recover. So I did have the procedure done and I didn’t have any problems until recently the two year mark. My right coil has fallen out and my left is migrating (moving around) they think that is what is causing the pain. I now have to worry about becoming pregnant again. I thought I was getting a fix for life. That is not true I have the dye test 3 months after it was closed up. They don’t do a yearly check up on these things. They just do the dye test and them you live with it. I seen somewhere they was going to change the name and there is not much difference just they will do the dye + vaginal ultrasound. Then you will still be on your own. I just wanted to put my story out there and let woman know. Please don’t go this way to be fixed.
Thanks for hearing my story, Crystal

I had essure places in 2012 after having our daughter. A few months later I developed anxiety and depression. Never have been a sad person I thought this was strange. The procedure failed the first time and was extremely painful. I should have realized then it wasn’t a good idea. Five years later I got pregnant with a blighted ovum. I had a very painful miscarriage and was treated like a circus animal when going to the hospital because no one had ever seen someone pregnant with essure. Come to find out a year later the coil had broken in half and perforated my tube and embedded itself in my abdomal wall. Fast forward a year later and I had to have surgery to remove both tubes and massive scaring in my abdomen. I will need to have another surgery to remove the other coil that’s embeded and couldn’t be removed in the first surgery. DONT GET THESE PLACED!!! I’ve delt with anxiety hair loss depression massive pain during my periods back pain and now surgery pain.
