I had the Essure coils placed in June of 2013. I had the HSG test in November 2013 and it showed one coil was on the fallopian tube as it should be however the second one is embedded in a muscle and not on the tube. I am now scheduled to have my tubes removed in December and to remove the coils. I actually consider myself lucky though as I have not had any adverse physical effects. I wish I would have had my tubes tied instead of Essure. The most frustrating part is the financial expense of the surgery.
