Has anyone had problems conceiving after NORAPLANT?
When I was 18 I got pregnant withmy first child. I gave birth to him when I was 19. 3 weeks after giving birth to my son I became pregnant with Twins. I made it to my 4th month of pregnacy in which sadly I miscarried. The doctor recomended I gaev my body some time to rest. and Offered Noraplant. he said It could be removed when ever I felt at a later date. Well After 1 year of 80 lb weight gain and migraine headaches I went to my doctor and told him of my syptoms. He prescribbed IBprofen for the migraines and sent me on my marry way. Well for the remainder of the year I went back and forth complainingof the pain in my arm and the headaches and the steady weight gain. Finally 2 yeas and 3 months later they removed the noraplant in a painful way. I felt like they where cutting my arm off.
Any way I finally got the noraplant removed in 1997 I was told it would only take a short time for me to get pregnant they said it would be 6months - 1 year.
DUring this time The weight gain jumped another 40 lbs and and the migrains have been on and off alot less from before. My last pregnancy ended in Miscariage again.
ANd in 2001 I had to have my right OVARY AND FALLOPIAN tube removed due to cysts.
HAS any one gone through any of this? or something of this sort? Is there a class action suit? If any one has gone through this have they had a baby healthy following this?

This is Bombay wife, I was actually 14 yr. old when I first had the implant! I read that if anyone has any heart problems should never recieve the implants? but the OBGYN @ Pitt Memorial was aware of my health problems and they still proceeded with the implants anyway!! after the noraplant my cardiomyopathy has not recoverd back to normal I still take meds today,and my heart has weekend by2% so does that make me eligible for comp?? and what should I do about the suit against the doctor that did not remove all stems?? Im new to all of this please help me?? it really sound like you really know the BIZZ!! Thank you so,so,much.
Do by any chance do you know the name of the drug company that filed the suit against the Noraplant??
No A noraplant is nothing like a IUD!! its not on the market anymore,its not safe and if you are not trying to gain weight please dont think about a noraplant implant, that is what it is. Its a 6 stem implant that is implanted under the skin of your upper arm that controls you from becoming pregnant that last up to5 years. it can be removed any time at your will, you may or may not notice problems with it @ first. but soon enough you will !! but hopefully you will take my advice and not get it .or better maybe its really gone off the market for good..... Best luck to you.
I got noraplant out ten years ago and i did have a baby after but i have gained about 100 pounds and i have health proplems ,heavy periods,cramps and pain in my arm where noraplant was.i dont know what to do .please give me any thing else you might know about it and the law suits
