IUD expulsion....twice!
Hey, so I was recently diagnosed with Endometriosis after many, many years of being told it's just a heavy period, you'll just have to get on with it - thank you male doctors. So now I have a diagnosis and my GP recommended the coil as a first plan of action. After insertion my coil came out after 3

Living on Blood Thinners while being on Birth Control
I do not like IUD's as I feel I would end up bleeding a lot like others have and have severe pain and I do not like the fact that the
IUD
device could easily move inside me and cause more damage due to other health issues I deal with and how doctors constantly downplay to my face about an
IUD
making

wtf is this
After going back to have another image of the
IUD
to get a better look the veteran ultrasound technician told me there was no way that
IUD
was coming out without surgery and that she had 30+ years and knows what she was talking about .

Endometriosis and the Kyleena IUD
Hi all, Just after some experiences please. I went to my GP to ask for a hysterectomy due to my increased symptoms of endo that I've had since I was 11 (I'm now 36). I have been absolutely blessed with having a child of my own and have now got to the stage in my life where child 2 isn't on the cards

Mirena/IUD - how was it for you?
Pain during sex and lack of libido has continued - have been checked and the
IUD
is still comfortably in place and has not shifted. When I went to the doctor they were very dismissive and just said that my body was adjusting.

carbimazole help
It could be low because I’ve recently become vegetarian and I have had a coil
IUD
fitted causing very heavy periods - but this is a different story. Unfortunately though, the problem child this time is my T4 which is now hypothyroid at 8.9 (range 11-22). I am on 10mcg carbimazole a day.

Heavy bleeding Mirena
Hello I have the mirena
IUD
coil for about 3 years now. My bleeding used to be lighter but still there and constant. But over the last couple of money with academic stress and financial pressure. I've been bleeding so heavily with blood clots the size of my palm.

Endo and spotting
I came off the pill due to starting to get side effects, then after 9 months got a regular cycle back which was really painful, so tried the merina
IUD
. I just bled for 3 weeks every month with this and my hair was falling out so got it removed in January this year.

IUD (coil) disturbs during intercourse!
During the c section, doctor fitted an
IUD
inside my womb. But the problem is the cable! A yarn-like hard cable placed inside the vagina which disturbs me always. Specially during intercourse. My partner feels pain from it. Is there any solutions or suggestions for me. I want to get rid of it.

IUD and sex
Just wanted to check so I don't mess this appointment up....I have a copper
IUD
and have been recently having pain during sex around the area it sits in (ie my cervix) so on Monday I'm going to go and check to see if it's still in place/in the right place.

Copper IUD
Anyone experienced any sickness/nausea, after having the copper
iud
placed? Since having it placed I've been feeling really sick to the point where my mouth is watering. I'm trying to rule it out because I'm on medication.

TOA advice!
Whilst admitted to hospital I had IV antibiotics, CTAP & USS both scans showed fat stranding and inflammation around my right ovary and the consultant advised that I had likely developed PID from my copper
IUD
causing sepsis and TOA.

IUD / IUS, which one?!
Got diagnosed with PCOS in 2021 but have had symptoms for 10+ years. I’ve had nothing but trouble with oral contraceptive pills so am on no hormonal treatment and have had zero support from GPs and gynaecologists. The only option now being given to me is to have an intrauterine device/system fitted

IUD Tips
I’ve had my
IUD
in since September last year and I had one normal period but the one after that has lasted until now and I’m really worried. I can’t tell anyone in my house because they don’t believe in sex before marriage.

Cube pessary disaster
To paraphrase - insertion was a struggle (I’m OK with smears,
IUD
insertion & childbirth) and removal not much better. I declined to continue with it & was fitted with a ring pessary to remain in for 6 months.

IUD mirena coil fitted extreme pain
Is it normal to have this much pain after having
IUD
fitted but will ease tomorrow/next day? I'm also on my period so could this have agitated the pain more?
