Polycythemia Vera & Menstruation
I used to have a copper
iud
and would have very heavy periods. Could my heavy blood loss have been masking my PV? I then got a hormonal
iud
which has made my natural blood loss become almost nonexistent.

I have had the Mirina
IUD

IUD
? THANK YOU IN ADVANCE š

IUD copper coil
I had the copper coil for 5 years, I thought I had no problems with it until it came out very recently. I found that I had very low mood and was very anxious when I had it in, but I thought it was unrelated to the coil, however when it came out I felt loads better, I had it out for 5 weeks before getting

Hormones affecting vaginal dryness
Iām considering going on the copper
IUD
but all I hear are negative things. Clearly thereās downsides to any contraceptive. But just wanted peoples advice or their own personal experiences.

Potential endo and non-hormonal IUD
I got the non-hormonal
IUD
fitted in last year and I love it, it has made my period a tiny bit worse but it has always been bad. When I was talking to my gyno about the referral, it was as if they were pushing me against a lap.

Adenomyosis NI
Only option was Mirena
IUD
(which I already have) and mini pill (which I took for a year and never again, turned out I have progesterone intolerance). Having to go privately with Benenden thanks to the length of the waiting lists and just looking for some guidance. Thanks!

Has anyone tried having both the IUD and pill at the same time? What was your experience?
Hi all, I hope youāre doing well š¤ My surgeon recently has recommended taking the pill on top of the
IUD
to try manage the endo/adeno pain that is coming back two fold.

Maybe caused by copper
