Hi my name is Paula.
I was 31 when I went in to get the Essure procedure done. I did not want to get my womanly organs removed but I had already had all the babies i wanted. So at first it was good no cramping but my periods were very heavy with huge blood clots. After years of bleeding excessively and being in pain I went back to my Dr and asked to have them removed. They stated they could not reverse the Essure but they could make the bleeding be less. So I went in to get a sample of my uterus tested. OH by the way since i got this Essure I also got some strange health issues that to this day can not be explained. I would get blood clots in my lungs but no doctor could say from where or why. So when i went to go give a sample of my uterus I almost bleed out 5 days later due o the blood thinner I have to be on for the rest of my life now. i went into surgery and had 2 blood transfusions. The pain during my periods is horrible. But I was never told why I was bleeding so much. Its another question for my books. I would love to have these things removed but have been told repeatedly that I can not. i would not recommend this to my worst enemy.
