THE LAWSUIT
What is Essure?
Essure is a permanent form of female birth control (female sterilization). In short, the device is intended to cause bilateral occlusion (blockage) of the fallopian tubes by the insertion of micro-inserts into the fallopian tubes which then anchor and elicit tissue growth, theoretically causing the blockage.
Side Effects
Thousands of women have been reporting common side effects which include: pelvic pain, perforated organs, headaches, nausea, hair loss, pregnancy, device migration, weight gain, depression, skin rashes, adhesion disorders, and hysterectomies.
