I got the Essure 6 weeks after my 3 child was born at 22 yrs old. I was told that it was a pain free procedure with no down time, well that was wrong. I had alot of pain getting my Essure coils placed and ever since that day I have had horrible cramping, sometimes to the point of tears. I suffer from headaches, dizziness, fatigue and weight gain and I have had no menstrual cycle since the placement. I wish I would have know half of the things then that I know now! I am so glad I’ve found other people that are going through the same thing, I know I am not alone and together we can get through this and save other ladies from this pain.
