Essure Lawsuit

Serious Injuries from Permanent Birth Control Device

Essure has been linked to device perforation, migration, and severe pain. If you've been harmed by Essure, you may have a legal claim.

What Is Essure?

Essure was a permanent birth control device manufactured by Bayer, designed to be implanted in the fallopian tubes as a minimally invasive alternative to tubal ligation.

The device was voluntarily withdrawn from the U.S. market in 2018 following widespread complaints and FDA investigations.

Health Risks and Alleged Injuries

Lawsuits allege that Essure caused perforation of the fallopian tubes, migration of the device, severe pain, abnormal bleeding, and unwanted pregnancies. Many women reported severe complications requiring emergency surgery.

Plaintiffs claim that Bayer failed to adequately warn about serious risks and that the device was defectively designed.

Litigation Status

Essure litigation has resulted in significant settlements from Bayer. Thousands of women have filed lawsuits alleging serious injuries from the device.

The FDA strengthened its warnings after receiving thousands of adverse event reports.

Who May Qualify

Women who had Essure implanted and subsequently experienced device perforation, migration, severe pain, allergic reactions, or unwanted pregnancy may qualify. Medical records documenting the complication are essential.
