I had the essure procedure after my 3rd child was born in 2006. I was never told of any side effects. Soon after the procedure I began to experience horrific pelvic pain,(I now have ovarian cysts ) abnormal periods, bloating, back pain & migraines. I was told that none of these symptoms were related to the procedure or even eachother. I have heard many stories not unlike my own. Some women have even become pregnant after having this procedure. Which is why I have done some research & have came across this page. I am grateful to know I am not alone & am not crazy but am horrified that this product has ruined so many lives. Something must be done before more women are affected by this procedure. Please do plenty of research BEFORE making a decision that could ruin life as you know it! I wish I had.
