My nane is Jennifer. I turned forty last month. I had the essure procedure done in March of 2013, as I was finished having children. I’ve had excessive bleeding since the procedure and terrible headaches. I’ve gone twice to have the dye inejected to see if the clamps closed off. One did and one did not. I now have devices inside me that do not worK. The one is completely crooked and I believe the cause for the bleeding but my dr states otherwise. My dr said it will never fully turn and I will need to get my tubes tied. I’ve gone to the dr twice complaining of sharp pains and the bleeding and there is no explanation. None of these problems were around before the essure devices were placed on my body. I bleed so bad sometimes, it’s almost as if I’m having a miscarriage. I am lost as what to do, and sad that I am not alone with my problems. Really think two, three, four times before having this procedure done. I wish I could go back to February and change my mind.
