Essure was a permanent birth control device made by Bayer consisting of metal coils inserted into the fallopian tubes. The device was designed to cause scar tissue to form, blocking the tubes.
After thousands of adverse event reports including chronic pain, device migration, and organ perforation, the FDA ordered restrictions and Bayer removed the device from the U.S. market in 2018. A $1.6 billion settlement resolved approximately 39,000 claims.
