Hi I had my essure placed 11/08 and just tested positive for a uterine pregnancy this past monday 10/19/09. My ob/gyn called and told me that I was the first documented case of this happening which I now see is untrue.
Thank you Kym for your advice. It really helps to know that other people are going through or have been through all of this. I think I am going to see if I can bring a friend with me to the doctor's visit so I don't feel pushed around. I am still in shock that all of this is happening! I really think I would prefer for them to take them out. I am not comfortable with leaving them in my body. I just don't know if I have enough time with the insurance companies changing to find a different doctor if I need to. I will keep you posted on what happens on Wednesday. Do you know if there is a class action suit going on or has anyone seeked legal action? Any information is welcome and if you would like to email me, my email address is

Thanks again!
I am new to this site. I was searching for others who have had problems with the essure procedure. I had my procedure done in 03/09 and I have only had one period. I also have pain during intercourse and I am my vagina gets very, very dry during sexual intercourse. This has never happened before having this procedure done. I am going to the doctor tomorrow to have the procedure checked. I need help to understand if this procedure is causing my pain and dryness. If someone would like to contact me. I can be contacted at carringtond2aol.com. Thanks in advance.
Kym4, I am new to this site. I had essure done on July 2, 2009, and I have had terrible pelvic pain, back pain, headaches, and nausea since that time. I am looking to have them removed, and my doctor has recommended a hysterectomy as well. I ahve done research and seen alternative methods for removal, but I am having a difficult time finding someone to do it. I have another appointment scheduled with a specialist next Friday. Can you please tell me how yours were removed?
Hi again Kym, I just went to the Maude FDA site. You are right. It is very confusing. Could you please tell me the information that I need to put in. I could not find where you posted this information previously. Have you heard of anyone else that is interested in a lawsuit and found a lawyer to take it on?
Kym, thank you for the advice. I will certainly follow it. I don't want to seem completely unhappy with this pregnancy. My husband and I do feel as if this baby is a blessing and we are excited for his arrival. But as a result of an unexpected pregnancy we are going to have to move into a bigger house and of course there are major expenses with another child. Thanks again. I will keep you updated. :0)
My email is ChristineHibshmangmail.com. I am just glad I am not alone on this. I dont know how to contact the FDA and need info on that. If and when there is a class action lawsuit.. please let me know. I am soo frustrated with my doctor the company. I just want them to pay!
Hi there, I was wondering if I could talk to you maybe on the phone about the essure procedure. I too have problems and have contacted the attorney someone advised and have told the story to a news station as well who is interested in doing a story on us girls. Please call me 281-728-8291
