I’m getting the copper iud next Friday and I’m so nervous. I’ve been on the pill since I was 13 years old and after I had my daughters I went back to it. But I’m tired of it, I wanna try something without hormones. Any options on the copper iud.

I just got the Liletta IUD last week and girl it is amazing! Ik u said non hormonal but I’ve been on the shot for about 5 months and I hated it bc it affects your whole body (just like the pill does) I was bleeding 5 months straight but 2 days after I got the IUD no bleeding bloating went down been losing weight way easier bc it’s only hormonal in ur cervix so I love it! Ik that the copper one can make periods really heavy and painful and the Liletta is the one that makes them almost completely go away. Just a thought bc it wont affect your whole body like the pill does

Also did it hurt? Lol

I had the copper coil fitted 3 weeks ago. Happy to answer any questions you may have x

Had mine removed 3weeks ago after having it in almost 4 years. Had heavy periods and I was constantly spotting. Had my 1st cycle, and it was normal. Not heavy bleeding and when my period stopped, the bleeding stopped too. Good luck, I know it's tricky trying not to get pregnant, but oh well
