Hi. I've been on the IUD for nearly 3 years and have never been pregnant. It was very painful having it done due to my womb being forced open (from never having a child) and my periods are extremely painful now but there is no hormone because it's a copper coil and I haven't gained any weight whilst on it.
I also had this pain, it made me pass out and felt like my heart was going to stop, the cramps were so terrible. It was scary because they came on so quickly. I immediately had my copper IUD removed. My doctor didn't seem to believe me but it was more painful than when I was in labor.
I took the depo shot it was the one of the worst experience of my life, I did not stop bleeding for 7 months straight. I was so emotional I drove my man crazy "we are still together going on 11 years". I now take Junel which keeps my period and emotions in check. I like to know what's going on with my body and my emotions, I do not recommend the depo shot.
Lucky you. I'm on deposit for 4 months now and I gain 10 lbs
I use tow kind of pill and they both made me put on weight so am going to try the no hormone iud
I got my Mirena the 1st of Aug and gained 10 since then. My eating habits haven't changed. In fact I have trouble eating and no appetite. I am having it taken out.
My mom used the iud it was no good it got stuck and she almost had to have surgery to get it out
where do you order them from?
I had the same exact symptoms!! I couldn't believe I gained 15lbs in a month. And to top it off my emotions was a roller coaster of highs and lows.. Yelling then crying... I wouldn't recommend the shot..
What site do you order through?
OH really? So working out 4 times a week....hard f*****g workouts cause I'm in the military and it's required....plus eating significantly less...No Soda. No juice and 50 pounds more than I was. Bull. Complete bull. No, my birth control caused a significant weight gain. Instantly lost 5 pounds when I removed it. Excuse my bluntness, but when my shipmate works out twice a day 4 hours a day sometimes. 3 to 6 times a week and CAN NOT lose weight off her BC....then I call BULL on your opinion.
I would have never gained that weight if I were not on BC. Unfortunately for me, I have a weight requirement to make. Thank you. Goodbye.

Right! I've gained 5lbs on depo and my doctor says if I don't lose it I have to go off it
I am having terrible pain with mine too. It's coming out tomorrow!
How much does it cost?
That's not true. I am on it and don't have any kids. It has also made me gain a c**p load of weight considering I am on lite n easy and work out twice a day 5 days a week.
I am in the doctors office atm enquiring to have it removed after having it in for a year
