Essure was intended to offer a permanent, non-surgical birth control solution—but for thousands of women, it led to severe and lasting harm. If you’ve suffered complications from an Essure implant, you may have grounds to pursue legal action against its manufacturer, Bayer.
Marketed as a safer alternative to tubal ligation, Essure consisted of metal coils inserted into the fallopian tubes to trigger scar tissue and block fertilization. But instead of delivering reliable contraception, it exposed many women to dangerous and irreversible side effects.
The device remained on the market for over 15 years despite growing complaints. By the time Bayer discontinued Essure in 2018, the FDA had received tens of thousands of adverse event reports, including device migration, organ damage, and autoimmune responses. These event reports lead Bayer to halt sales in the United States.
