Essure Birth Control Class Action Investigation
​
​Investigating a class action on behalf of women who have undergone the Essure birth control procedure. Essure was first approved in 2002 and was marketed by Bayer as an alternative to tubal ligation.  From the time Essure was approved by the FDA in 2002 to May 31, 2015, the FDA has received over 5000 reports from doctors and women that the permanent birth control device has caused serious side effects, including 11 deaths, five of which were for fetal deaths that occurred in women who became pregnant after the Essure procedure. As a result, in June 2015, the FDA updated the number of adverse event reports involving the Essure system on its website, along with the system’s short and long-term risks, as part of its review of potential Essure problems.  If you or a loved one has undergone the Essure birth control procedure, please contact us.
