I just read the article on Essure I am experiencing heavy bleedig from this device. I had know idea that this device was implanted into me until I had to have and ultrasound 2 years ago. I have had this device since 2000. I thought I was having a tubaligation that is what I consented to. Now here I am getting another ultrasound done to see why my periods are so heavy and the tech was telling me about the article. I received something that the FDA didn’t approve of until 2002. Now what should be done?
