Hi I go by Melissa. Where to start is the big question. I got remarried and we decided to have a child. I was at a later age of 38. After the birth I felt I was getting to old to have any more children. I did not want to be on birth control. I did depo and found out it was for male sterilizatin so that was not an opition. Essure had just been aporved so I I did not plan on having any more children. That was the option I went with. BIGGEST MISTAKE EVER! I have never had a problem until now. I have VERY painful periods. Heavy bleeding,major bloating,fatiuge,lots of pain in my ovories extreme emotional issuses. If its cold I hurt in my ovories. I want a hystarectomy to get this out. I never even knew this would be this bad. I say to any one who is thinking of this DONT DO IT!
