I had ensure placed on July 5, 2013. They had some complications getting one coil in on one side so it took way longer than expected. I went home with minor pain as to be expected, but as weeks went by the pain got worse. Every time I walked I felt this ‘pulled muscle’ feeling on my right side. The Dr said it was just normal healing pain. It continued to get worse. I felt like I could barely stretch my leg out as normal as it was pinching & pulling. Finally, the pain was so bad I went to the ER-I couldn’t get out of bed. I was curled up in a fetal position barely able to move. My coil had slipped halfway down into my uterus & was trying to heal. The only way to solve this was a complete hysterectomy. At the age of 33 I was set for a full hysterectomy on July 5 2013. I have suffered menopause sysmptoms ever since. My Dr’s insisted it was all in my head and I had to keep going back & insist that something was wrong before they actually checked. Worst decision of my life!
