Erin is ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. My essure coils (in spite of the little round things suspended from the ends to keep this from happening) perforated through two walls and the other was only halfway inserted. I went in and had them removed, but they had to take the whole fallopian tube on each side because when the surgeon touched it both coils disinte…grated and the short procedure ended up lasting hours. I have pics and everything to prove it. I knew I hurt but couldn’t get anybody to listen until I went to Dr Bradshaw at Ogden Regional, who specializes in scope surgery, and she was just horrified. She told me more women had come in pregnant with essure than anybody had any idea about, and other problems like mine. I was considering having a baby. Now I CAN’T. DO NOT GET THIS PROCEDURE.See More
