the IUD does cause abdominal pain , and it does hurt your partner , i remember when my husband and i would "try " to have sex it was so uncomfortable for me and him.. i would have severe abdominal pain and i would just take the pain to keep him happy but id notice that after a min he would jump off of me and say he didn't like it and it hurt him, i would get really depressed because id think it was me he didn't like.. especially since the Dr. assured me there was no way he would feel the IUD, eventually my depression got worse..My husband started to noticed it so he tried hard to please me but i would notice pain in his face every time, and that's when i knew he really did feel pain, the top of his penis would be red .... i finally got the courage to tell my Dr. to take it out, the Dr. seemed she didnt want me to take it out, she said there was a charge of $175 to get it removed (unless i had a good excuse to get it removed) and if i got it taken out i would never be able to get another one inserted in, i gave her the best excuse, i told her all my symptoms, my pain, my husbands pain and how depressed i was. I told her also I was feeling suicidal because of the depression and my husband not wanting sex with me (i extended the truth abit to make her believe me), she then had it removed for free and referred me to counseling jajaja.. After I got it removed i would say a month later when i was on the shot my husband and I had sex it was the best sex ever no abdominal pain, nothing, thankfully we lived happily ever after.. up till now ive been on the shot for two years and a half.
My Dr. says i need to stop taking it, and find another birth control method because the shot decreases your calcium and she feels people should only be on the shot just two years ...
now i don't know what to take i've tried just about everything and the shot was the best for me , ugh! if its not one thing its another... I just want to say i know the pain with the IUD doesnt get better, it only gets worse if your having pain id say get it checked or removed it might not be for you like it was for me...
Damn....I thought I must have been imagining things when I felt that sharp prick on the tip of my penis.....but no, I wasn't imagining it...it was really painful for me ....my wife had the Mirena inserted 3 days ago and she complained about bad abdominal cramps (like she's having her periods) and pain inside her uterus as soon as she left her gynae's table. We had sex last night and when I inserted my penis all the way in, I felt a painful jab on the tip as well as on the pee hole....this really put me off and I pulled out after a few minutes. She didn't feel anything btw. After that, I inserted my index finger inside her vagina to try to "feel" the string, but I didn't feel anything in there that was poking me :?
After this, my wife insisted that she would ride me on top to see if I could still feel the jab......well, it still did a bit but it was not as painful as when I was on top of her. After about 5 minutes (and a few tiny pricks and jabs here & there), I decided I should try again while I was on top and hell!!!...It hurt like crazy....that DAMN string or whatever that was protruding from Mirena jabbed at my tip like a sharp knife.....It didn't feel good at all....
We will go to the gynae again and see what could be done....we really want to keep using Mirena as it is the best alternative to the Pill (which makes her gain a lot of weight).....has anyone had this problem solved without having to remove the Mirena?
Is it just other countries than Australia that has this problem? I had my IUD inserted today, i have had severe cramping (which i've been told will ease off) but due to menorrhagia the only other options were ISAIDS for the rest of my life or a complete hysterectomy. I'd rather see how this goes first. Apart from all of this tho, i was actually told i wasn't to have intercourse till at lease 2 weeks after insertion, maybe other countries don't advise to stop intercourse for at least two weeks after insertion - maybe this is your problem. I'll let you know if in two weeks my partner feels the strings. :P
I've found out that IUD's and boyfriend's getting poked by the IUD are caused by the strings in the IUD being too long, it's an easy fix simply tell you're Gyno, or Doc and they will fix the problem. If the strings are cut right your partner shouldn't feel them, no matter how big they are.
Yeah my OBGYN said the same thing and so we cut the strings. Guess what my boyfriend still feels them. It hurts him and has ultimately ruined my sex life. We barely have sex now and I think its because every time we do the tip of his penis gets stabbed!
im scared to have it out but i need to for the sake of my relationship.
