I had Essure done after my 3rd baby in 2010. I have never done well with Hormones and thought of this as a more ‘natural’ approach. My Doctor obviously hadn’t performed many, if at all any, before. I hadn’t had a cycle in a year (as I was pregnant and then breast feeding). She mentioned to my mom that she ripped my tube. I became pregnant the same year and my body rejected it. I then got the HSG test by another Doctor which confirmed 100% blockage had been achieved.
Two years later after the blockage was confirmed, I am pregnant, 20 weeks. I am due April 7th 2013. My coils are missing! I find it really hard to believe I could miss two coils falling out! Where are they? Are the damaging any other internal organs? The high risk Doctor said they are not in my cervix or uterus. Supposedly they will not cause any harm to my baby, however, Essure’s website expresses unknown risks to the baby. One Ultrasound tech said my blood clot behind the foetus may have’been caused by a scrape the Essure caused’. Nice added ‘risk’.
