Avatar f tn The essure is non hormonal so hoping weight gain wont happen.
Avatar f tn So glad u posted this! I've been wondering the same thing. I have 4 n feel like we are complete, but u just never know!?? :-) I've never used any kind of birth control so don't even know where to start!.?
Avatar n tn I just had Essure removed in January of this year after being sick for 4 years from the numerous complications. Currently Erin Brokovich is fighting to have Essure recalled and there is a Essure complications group on Facebook with over 26K sufferers. Also, Dr. Eric Sills will be on October 12 episode of The Doctors discussing Essure. Please watch the episode and if you're still considering Essure, check out the Essure problems page on Facebook. Essure RUINED my health.
Avatar f tn My friend has done the depo shot two different times and each time she has gained alot of weight with it, anyone else experience weight gain? I would like to do the depo shot bc I know I cant remember to always take the pill but I already have a hard time losing weight any advice???
Avatar f tn I've had the Mirena in for about 3 years, no period *thumbs up*. no weight gain, no hair loss, and no mood swings. I recently begin to experience a foul smell even shortly after taking a bath. I went to my OB/GYN who then told me I had bacteria vaginosis (first time ever), no STD ever. I told my husband and he was like if the Mirena is causing this I need to take it out. The only thing I hate is the foul smell even after sex. I am getting it removed Friday and just getting my tubes tied.
268356 tn?1236002604 Is it possible that the bleeding is actually a period or should I be worried about something having gone wrong with the essure procedure or is this normal after the essure? I was thinking about the scar tissue that forms around the inserts surely that would cause some bleeding. I'm just not sure.
Avatar f tn Did your actual period seem normal? or could it be a side effect of the essure? you can always take a test to be sure and if it is negative see your doctor to try to figure out what it could be if it persists!
897912 tn?1241739166 I decided to do this because one of my friend had same problem with mine, and she blocked one fallopian tube by the Essure coil to do IVF as well last year, and she actually got pregnant naturally after 3 months of her Essure procedure. Her pregnancy is about 6 months now and has no problem so far. But I am still worry if I had a right choice, because I read about so many people are having problem after Essure such as a lot of pain, coil breaks through uterus, coil was bent etc...
8012558 tn?1399308657 I do trust my doctor, but I would lie if I say that I am not scared of the life after hysterectomy. I am scared of gaining weight and not being able to loose it. I am scared of going into early menopause, not having sex drive, etc. But I cannot live with the pain I am feeling right now, it hurts when I am seating, when I am standing I feel like someone is stabbing me down, the sex now is not all that enjoyable because of the pain.....
4909041 tn?1361062128 i was on birth control pills when i was younger and they made me gain weight and super sick. the only birth control method i used is condoms! thats what saves me all the time. but hey God dont make mistakes.
1454858 tn?1306784378 I have also been given some info on a procedure called essure, where they go in through the vagina (about 6-8 weeks after delivery) and scar the tubes, permanently blocking them. I am CERTAIN that I want a permanent procedure done. I did however love being on birth control pills ( great skin & shorter peroids) I am 34 yr old & i don't think it is so healthy to be on them forever....
Avatar n tn I had my tubes blocked with the Essure Procedure in 2007. 10 months after the procedure was done I started having pelvic pain on my left side. After a colonoscopy, laparoscopy, and 3 ultrasound the doctor still hasn't found the source of this pain. on my last ultrasound the technician didn't had a clue of what the essure procedure was and asked me if I had an IUD. I told her no, that I had the essure procedure done, she mentioned that she could see it in my uterus.
Avatar f tn s wife after 4 children decided to have an Essure implant and after the initial inflammatory phase, instead of getting back to normal, her health started deteriorating rapidly. Chronic fatigue, unexplained fevers and pains, allergies. Her Gyn. suggested to see an infectious disease doctor to be checked for Lymes Disease! Who's kidding who here?
Avatar n tn Hello, It is normal to find changes in menstrual cycles like heavier or longer than normal periods, bleeding or spotting between periods after Essure procedure but these are all temporary side effects and should become better with time. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps.
Avatar n tn Please go to Essure Problems website or Essure Problems facebook page. There are thousands of us who have had many, many problems due to Essure. It is a good source of information with women who understand EXACTLY what you are going through. Best of luck to you and your baby.
8012558 tn?1399308657 I was not told by my doctor about any side effects that essure procedure can cause. The procedure itself was very painful and my doctor didn't give me any pain medication during the procedure. I did essure 5 years ago and since then I have experience nothing but the pain in my pelvic area. Doctor performed laparoscopy thinking it is endometriosis, but after the procedure I was told it was very mild and she was not sure if that was cause of my pain.
Avatar f tn ya i was looking into getting essure also but after reviewing it and seeing many womans issues with it i opted to not have it done... i have read girls saying that they bleed literally all the time while they have it and end up needing it removed when did you have the essure done? i dont think you have to worry about something actually being wrong with you .. I am thinking that its the Essure causing it.... drs rarley admit to something like that causing issues...
Avatar f tn (Exercise intolerance, lack of interest in social/activities, anxiety, irritable, hopelessness, dry skin, weight gain, hoarseness, IBS like symptoms, low body temp 96.8, headaches, chronic sinusitis, goiter with small multi nodules, coarse hair, etc) All of this since my c section 9 months ago. I had an estimated blood loss of 600ml.postoperatively I was in severe pain and continued to bleed for a few hours, I became swollen and hypertensionDifficult recovery and I was given Lasix for 2.
1503221 tn?1289584463 My OB is not concerned and says it has nothing to do with essure. I do think so since I was not bleeding after the previous essure came out. Than about two weeks later I had the third placed and I have not quit bleeding and passing clots. So basically I have been bleeding non stop since Georgia Marie was born a little over 5 months ago!!!
1025612 tn?1287234160 I had the essure procedure in April of this year. I have 4 kids & I really dont want anymore. Im just wondering if anyone has had the procedure and what thier outcome was.
Avatar f tn Has anyone got the essure procedure after having a baby? ?? I can't choose between getting my tubes tied or the essure.
Avatar f tn If you were my patient, I would recommend IVF as your best bet for pregnancy after the procedure. There have been documented pregnancies following the procedure. Good luck!
Avatar f tn Has anyone heard of the essure?? It's to prevent future pregnancy, I just want to know if has anyone had bad side effects?
Avatar f tn Various side effects of Essure™ placement are discussed on the manufacturer’s website. These include symptoms during or immediately after placement, such as mild to moderate cramping, nausea or vomiting, dizziness or lightheadedness, and bleeding or spotting.10 Additional adverse events can be explored by review of the Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience database. This database is organized through the US FDA.
Avatar f tn Yes it stops pregnancy from happening but I get every side affect.. weight gain, mood swings.. low sex drive.. I am at a cross road of what to do. I am currently 33 weeks with #2 and already signed my tubal ligation paper work...
1173196 tn?1292916490 s worth investigating. I had issues after my tubal related to hair loss, weight gain, etc. But there are other factors that could have contributed to that (stress). Let me just suggest this, though - do some long, hard thinking. I regretted my tubal the NIGHT I had my son. And, at that point, I had no idea just how much more I would end up regretting it. I truly wish that doctors would make women see a counselor before making such a decision.
628981 tn?1260555203 and i have put on ten more since i quit...dont know but some lose alot of weight instead...guess we just work on the weight after we quit..perhaps like smoking...u take it away and weight comes on cos metabolism slows down...
