At the age of 23 I became a mother of 3.. I have had complications with each one of my pregnancies so I figured the right thing to do for my body was to not conceive anymore. I talked to my OBGYN about the different forms of birth control, and seeing as though i’ve already conceived on 2 forms of birth control I went with the essure because (as I was told) it was the most effective form of birth control. I completely regret my dicision. I thought the issues that i’ve been dealing with in my body were normal for the implant, or maybe that my body was just prone to infections. Today I found out different by researching the essure. I had no idea that there has been so many complications with this birth control. I will be scheduling an appoinment today thanks to this site and a couple more.
