Hello, I been on the copper iud for almost 3 months now and I’ve gained 20lbs and I’m having constant bv… I was told that the copper IUD has no hormones and it wouldnt cause weight gain but there’s no reason for the sudden weight gain.. anyone else have this problem?

I dont think theres any correlation between the copper iud and weight gain

There’s no extra hormones in copper iud’s but the copper iud itself effects your body’s hormones that’s why it works
I had my copper iud for 2.5 years with no issues (at 2.5 years it shifted out of place and I got pregnant with it inside me 🫣🤣 but before that it was my favorite form of birth control I ever used)
