What are Essure Side Effects?
As for what are Essure side effects, many have plagued women who unsuspectingly received the defective medical device.
Many women suffer debilitating chronic pain, debilitating headaches, allergic response to nickel in the device, colon perforation and nausea. Some women have had to undergo a hysterectomy to rid their bodies of the devices, and some women became pregnant after receiving an Essure implant, despite the fact that preventing pregnancy was the device’s function.
Other women have suffered fever and fainting spells, as well as bloating, rashes, chronic pelvic pain, hot flashes, excessive bleeding, miscarriages and ectopic pregnancies.
Too, the defective birth control implant may migrate from the fallopian tube and then get lodged near or in the colon. Women have had to endure multiple surgeries to locate and remove the defective implant.

Essure Lawsuits May be Needed
To fight back against the negligence of Essure’s manufacturer and seller, Bayer, victims should contact an experienced and knowledgeable defective medical device attorney or injury lawyer with the Willis Law Firm.
Currently, a federal pre-exemption prevents plaintiffs from suing Bayer for the injuries its product caused. But that exemption is being challenged in court and may be overturned.
In that eventuality, plaintiffs can freely sue Bayer for the injuries and misery caused by a product it continues to sell without an Essure recall despite clear evidence that this product is harming many American women.
