I had the procedure done about 10 years ago. Over the past 8 years, my life has been hell. Between the pain, the extremely heavy bleeding, the headaches, the hair loss and many other issues, it is sometimes hard to just deal with every day life. Recently I found a news story on line about this and started doing some research. I was glad to find out that I was not the only going through this, not that I am happy that anyone is going through this. I have contacted Bayer and was told that the issues I am having could not have anything to do with the implants and everything was due to my age, I am only 35 years old! When I informed them of my age, they told me that it was something to do with my body changing and not the implants. After reading this article, I started to do some research and I am currently working with a doctor to possibly have a full hysterectomy at the age of 35. This is a serious and life changing surgery but, if this is what I have to do to take care of the issues I have been having, then I’ll do it.
