The authors of the study concluded: 'These findings do not support increased medical risks associated with hysteroscopic sterilization. The independently funded research compared women with Essure to those who had tubal ligation surgery, the only other method of permanent birth control, and found that many of the concerns described in the film with regard to Essure - pain (analgesic use) and hysterectomy - were lower in Essure patients than in tubal ligation patients at both one and three years post procedure.

Taken as a whole, the study actually undermines the central premise of the film's representation of Essure. Notably, the film's only reference to scientific data regarding Essure is the 2018 Bouillon study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association ('JAMA'), which its producers cite out of context and portray in its least favorable light.

This does a disservice to the thousands of women who rely on Essure for their reproductive health, as it may encourage them to pursue risky and unnecessary surgery to remove the device. The film also relies on many conflicted sources without disclosing their potential biases.

The film presents an inaccurate and misleading picture of Essure by relying almost entirely on anecdotes, cherry-picking information to fit a predetermined conclusion, ignoring the full body of scientific evidence that supports the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) determination that Essure's benefits outweigh its risks and disregarding the appropriate warnings that accompany the device. In contrast, the portrayal of Essure in The Bleeding Edge lacks scientific support, despite the fact that Bayer provided the producers with extensive scientific information on Essure before the completion of the film. Bayer also is reminding women with Essure that the safety profile of the device remains positive and unchanged.ДЄs a leader in women's healthcare, Bayer believes strongly that women and their physicians should make reproductive health decisions based on sound science. This Fact Check is based on Bayer's review of the film's premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival on Apand is intended to encourage a science-based conversation about Essure.
