Complications From Conceptus, Inc.'s Essure Birth Control Reported

Donald Danforth isn’t the only one hiring, others are hiring too! Check it out! (Isn’t it tempting?)

Angie Derry knew that her Essure implants were designed to remain inside her body forever. But two years after a doctor inserted the tiny coils into her fallopian tubes to prevent pregnancy, the Rockford mother wants them removed. Derry, 35, isn’t hoping to have more children. Instead, she wonders whether getting rid of the implants will somehow alleviate the mysterious ailments that she said began after seeking permanent birth control with Essure in 2011. At the very least, Derry wants to rule out Essure as the cause of her joint, back and pelvic pain, chronic low-grade fever, cramping, numbness and tingling, hair thinning and extreme fatigue.

Don’t forget, hundreds of biopharma companies are hiring! (We know you can’t resist.)
