I hope my story is able to prevent someone from having essure placed in them.I would first of all like to start off by saying I am a mom of 5 beautiful children and two angels in heaven.All of my pregnancies were very complicated so after the birth of my last daughter I decided it was time for sterilization so I decided to go with Essure.I had the procedure done in October 2012. everything was fine at first it wasn’t till about 4 months after surgery I realized I had started to gain weight 30 lbs in all.The weight gain wasn’t horrible but the cramping backaches and numbness in my face is.To top it all off today 2 yrs 3 months post Essure I am pregnant again.I guess I am one of the lucky ones its not an etopic pregnancy. But the dr does say it doesn’t look like a healthy pregnancy and I have a 50% chance of miscarriage. I’m not even upset that I’m pregnant but I am mad Essure failed it fails millions of women and its still on the market .how many women have to be hurt by this product before we are taken seriously?
