I received the Essure implants in August of 2014. While I have not experienced things that are horriffic, I have gained 45 pounds since they were placed a little over one year ago. I have also experienced depression and fatigue to a level that is worse than when I had a baby and a toddler needing my attention. I am 32 years old and this level of tiredness is not normal for me. It has begun to affect my home life since I am too tired to help my children with their homework and I get short with my husband quickly due to being exhausted. No amount of sleep is ever enough.I do my best to exercise and walk/run with my son. I have changed my diet and reduced my sugar/carb intake. Nothing works! The pounds just keep adding up.I have spoken with my doctor regarding Essure being the possible cause but get the same response ‘there is no medical evidence to support your claims’ and it has been ‘in all the women’s magazines lately’. This blatant dismissal of my potential issue was my last straw. I want to tell any woman who is thinking of getting these stupid coils, DON’T DO IT! I wish I would have listened to the friend who told me not to.
