I'm having all these problems too. I can't have sex because it hurts way too much. The doctors actually cut the strings on my iud too short so they haven't been able to find the strings. I've gotten x rays and ultrasounds but they say everything is ok. I've been trying to get this thing out for about a year now and I'm finally getting it taken out in a few days. I have sharp pains and I even feel my uterus twitching every now and again and I have bleeding too and I'm nautuous all the time and my boobs hurt alot. I've taken pregnancy tests but they all come up negative. I absolutely hate and regret ever getting the iud. It's the worst birth control I've had
I know this was over a year ago. But did the removal of the IUD help your symptoms?
Thanks!
Thanks!
I have had now had the mirena 3 x. Never related the pain of sex and bleeding due to the mirena. I though it was just my body. The last time I had the mirena removed sex was amazing. Had it replaced this month and the pain and bleeding has come back. There is no doubt in my mind now what causes this.
The string from the IUD is too long and needs to be trimmed. Her OBGYN can do that for her.
Mine has actually cut my partner..
We experience this as well. Not only hurts him, but uncomfortable for me too. Calling Dr to have it checked out.
When I got my iud my doctor snipped the wires at the bottom as short as possible for the sake of my man.. He still feels it every time, we just have to find a more comfortable position.
I have had my IUD for a few years now, this bleeding and discomfort after intercourse didn't happen until recently, just a few months ago. It's not heavy like menstruation but I will bleed during and will continue to spot a couple of days afterwards as well as a feeling of inflammation. My Dr didn't advise me of this as a side effect either
Its the wire they put round it so they can pull it out she's just got to go back to doctors and get it cut back
I have all the problems you are having... I am a 21 year old and never had a child. I was given the IUD when I was 16 by a doctor who told me that he wasnt comfortable with giving me the birth control arm implant, which i asked for, because he hadnt given it to someone my age so instead, he gave me the IUD which is for women who have already birthed a child. MAKES SENSE. So I got the IUD inserted and that was the absolute worst pain i had ever felt, immediately after I was about to pass out and having terrible cramping. My family wasnt allowing me to get a different birth control so i had to keep the IUD which is where im still at today. And to this day every time i have intercourse it is extremely painful and afterwards i bleed almost worse than a normal period for about 3-7 days. The IUD has made it to where sex hurts, doesnt sound desirable, and my moods are unbearable. I really wish doctors would inform people and know what they are talking about. My life has been so crazy with the IUD and if i was able to make the decision myself years ago then i would have never gotten it.
My husband said he felt something that hurt when we were getting into it. My dr said he wasn't happy with how my iud went in & to come back a week later for a follow up. I had to reschedule & has an ultrasound to check for cysts & fibroids & found the iud is sitting low in my cervix not even where it needs to be to prevent pregnancy, luckily we are careful & will continue to be careful. All theses old posts im Curious to know what the outcomes or findings were. Did they find out if their iud was on the right position
ive never had a child and I've had the mirena for 3 years now. When it was only a year or so old, my boyfriend said he could feel the strings poking him and it was sometimes painful. After another year or so, this stopped being an issue. Gyno said the strings were wrapped around my cervixas they should be so the poking should no longer me a problem. Now, three years later, I have trouble having sex in the doggy position. I think he is hitting my cervix and nudging the IUD, causing pain. When this happens, the pain usually stops as soon as he does. I might feel some cramping for a few hours after but nothing unbearable.
Hi there,
I have ever symptom you have described.... did it go away after you had the mirena removed??x

I know someone who had the strings clipped shorter because her husband could feel it. Now they want to try for another baby and they have to surgically remove her IUD because they cant pull it out. Maybe not the best thing to have the strings cut shorter. Just sayin. Ive had a lot of similar issues with mine these other ladies are having. Ive had mine for 2 years and the past 6 months have been hell with it. Having it removed Wednesday
Hey! I had the same thing. Ive had my IUD in for about under 1 year, and I cannot enjoy my sex life! It's horrible, due to the pain.
I also get cramps, but no discharge or blood (sorry tmi!) but then the next day cramps come again and this time I have blood, and I'm spotting quite a lot.
Deciding to take this coil out due to my sex life and mood swings are really terrible !
