Experiences with

Intrauterine device (IUD)

Hello, Does anyone know if any of the NHS services will provide an ultrasound scan with IUD fitting? I am considering getting the IUD but don't feel comfortable just guessing that "it all went well" once the procedure is done...

I’ve just had my IUD removed today as my recent smear had identified that it was no longer in place - thank god for my smear! After having an ultrasound to locate it, the nurse was able to remove it today.

Interested to know if a Mirena IUD is safe to have if you have Nash. I have read conflicting reports. I have only just had it inserted but apparently the hormones can have an affect on the liver??

I know I could get pregnant straightaway after IUD removal but surely I wouldn’t have started symptoms of implantation within only a few days?

Hi there, I was diagnosed with endometriosis in 2019 where I had surgery and got the mirena IUD fitted. I am now thinking about trying to get pregnant and wondered if anyone has been in this situation? Any recomendations? Thanks

Has anyone ever had copper coil fitted with a womb prolapse...I did and was told by my doctor that it was as effective as it would be with no prolapse but now I have a late period and thinking my doctor was maybe wrong

Now after surgery my endo specialist has suggested IUD. My gynaecologist told me i can wait for 2 months to start on a pill/iud . meanwhile i am thinking of some natural therapies which can help me keep it under control. Anyone with same kind of experience?

After this happened the first time, my GP put me on antibiotics incase it may have been an infection from the IUD and had an ultrasound and all is in it’s place. But yet now it is after everytime I have sex.

Also, if I want an IUD would I have to go to a GYN or could my family doctor do it?

Anyone had experiences on the IUD/IUS mirena or jaydess coil contraception? I want to get it but very worried about the insertion procedure and overall side effects. Was getting it fitted painful? Did you experience any side effects on the coil? Any info would be a great help thanks!

Hello, i have recently found out i have endometriosis and my doctor as suggested getting the mirena IUD inserted. Im just wondering if anyone else has had this and what they think of it?

I was wondering if there is anyone in this group who had an iud. I had to get off my pills because of a dairy allergy and they have lactose. I’m thinking of an IUD and have looked up Research on if it’s safe in an mri. I am getting conflicting research.

Anyone have any experience with the kyleena hormonal IUD?? seems to be making symptoms worse for me compared to the contraceptive pill taytulla that i used to be on. anyone else feel worse with IUD?

In the summer i met my boyfriend and we did the same until i decided to get the copper iud/coil fitted. After having it fitted it was ok for a month or two but then i got BV. I treated it and it went away however, i have gotten every month/other month and it’s had a toll on my body.

My dr wouldn't allow me to take an estrogen pill but suggested a mirena iud. However I have read contradictions on that so thought I'd see if anyone here had insight

The only thing I can think of that is different is that I got a Mirena IUD a few weeks ago. Any thoughts??

Copper IUD fitted 4 months ago, no issues until this months period. In absolute agony, the sort of pain that takes your breath away, feeling very dizzy and hot (temp ok) and awful pains

I had an IUD fitted about 6 weeks ago could that be causing the rash? I also had tonsillitis about 3 weeks ago could it be a viral rash? The photo is a picture of the rash

Anti depressants Or hrt Or iud ????? Kinda relieved palps have gone as was soo scared and thought it was my heart .
