IUD 🚫

IUD is actually one of my biggest fears . My mom was encouraging me to get one. Naw the thought of having sex with one when I already struggle with intimacy stresses me out . I’m scared I’d be done ripped or something 😆

I almost passed out having one put in, it did in fact get messed up during sex and had to be taken out. They increased my cramps during my period so much too. No complications from it though in my getting pregnant with my son I have now after that.

I had mine put in felt a little pressure but thats it though i seem to handle pain well...

Though ive had it over two months now and havent stopped bleeding 🥲 definently 100% effective birth control

Maybe the implant maybe better for you? I bled alot on that but some people have good experiences

The most painful experience of my life! I still have PTSD from that pain and I had it is for 3 months and it was the worst pain ever, it was like I was having contractions for 3 months. I think my body knew that should not be there and was trying to get it out but omg as soon as I took it out I felt immediately better

I highly recommend that anyone getting an IUD get a referral for sedation with insertion. Most insurance won't pay for it but it's been totally worth the out of pocket cost for me both times. I chatted with the doctor/nurses and was completely relaxed the whole time. They used Ativan (antianxiety) and fentanyl for pain. I felt literally nothing. I'll be getting my 3rd IUD in 2 weeks.
