I'm sure you'll be fine until Monday, but personally I wouldn't want to sit around with a bleeding, possibly pierced cervix. Getting in on Monday is already expedited by their standards. But since I'm doing field work for the three days after that, I really wanted to get in before I had to leave. fork bomb posted:Pick, that sounds super worrisome and I hope everything is okay.

I had that for my Paragard and I do have one for my Nexplanon. I had sliced up my finger though, so directing my husband to get my insurance card was all I had mind for. Also, I agree with fork bomb regarding getting separated from it. I keep considering something like RoadID to wear all the time (since I also have some drug allergies).

So I have a bit of a catch 22. When I first started taking BC, my gyno put me on Yaz. I've never had a problem remembering to take pills so it seemed like a great option. And it did work great until I realized it was probably the reason I was suddenly acting like a dramatic, weeping lunatic. I finally gave it up when I couldn't stop myself from crying in front of the cashier at Taco Bueno because of a completely imagined slight earlier in the day. After a few months of just using condoms, I decided to try hormonal BC again. I think I spoke to a lady at my school's health clinic that time. I mentioned my symptoms (which she referred to as "mood swings" but which I recall as being closer to "constant, irrational hysteria") and she prescribed me some Mononessa. Looking at Google it looks like it's just another brand of Ortho. This worked out pretty well at first, as it's cheaper than Yaz and I didn't feel like I was losing control of my emotions all the time. Eventually though, I realized the Mononessa had completely smothered my sex drive. So at my next appointment, with my current gynocologist, I mentioned my problem and my history with Yaz and she said "Ok. We'll put you on a lower dose." So she put me on Loestrine 24 and mentioned that it was basically the lowest dose available. The Loestrine was nice because it gave me much lighter, shorter periods and the iron in the reminder pills was great for the exhaustion I usually experience during my period. However, it was at least three times as expensive and my sex drive remained non-exisistant. I'm back on the Mononessa now, because if I'm going to be completely uninterested in sex, I might as well not go broke at the same time. The last time I brought this up (to my gynocologist's Physician's Assistant) she just said "I guess we could see if there's a lower dose." Seeing as that did basically nothing last time, I just told her to switch me back. I want to keep trying new prescriptions until I find one that works, but I'm scared of the emotional roller coaster that might ensue. Implants and IUDs seem like great options for long term BC (my sister got Implanon and raved about it), but I don't want to commit to something for several years if there's a chance it will turn me in to an irrational mess. Also, copper IUDs seem like a bad idea as my periods are really heavy already and I don't want to get into gushing territory. I'd really like to keep using pills, since I'm used to taking medication every day and I've never had a problem with forgetting. Also, neither my boyfriend or I really enjoy using condoms. From what I gathered while reading the thread, it seems like the high amount of estrogen in Yaz is what drove me crazy, and the switch to predominantly progesterone pills is what's compromised my sex drive. (Did I get that right? I feel like I might have confused something there.) So if I ask for something with a higher estrogen content, will I get a bit loopy again, but get my sex drive back? Is there any way to avoid the crazy over-emotional bullshit while getting my libido back, or am I stuck choosing between my sanity and my sex drive? I know this is a conversation I need to have with my gynocologist, and I'll be scheduling an appointment to talk to her tomorrow, but I can never think of what I actually need to ask. Something about doctors offices messes with my brain and I can never adequately express my concerns. So I guess all I'm really asking for is advice on what to say when I go to my appointment. What are good terms to use to get my point across? Is there any specific prescription or method I should ask about? Has anyone else had this problem and found a good solution? Sorry about the wall of text. The thought of switching again just makes me so nervous. I miss being horny, but I never want to cry in front of a stranger agian.

Write everything down before you go. Seriously. Bullet point that stuff, go through the pros and cons of everything that you think might work for you and ask your gyno if you missed anything. Write down exactly what has been going on with you and when, and what things you liked/didn't like about your previous BC. Write down any worries you might have about anything. It helps a ton with those doctor jitters It also seems to show the gyno that you've done your research and they're much more willing to listen to what you want instead of just shoving something else at you- I went through a list of everything available and why I didn't want each one, and why I did want a Mirena, and she was all "well looks like you've covered everything, when do you want it in?" I personally love my Mirena and will most likely get another in 4 1/2 years when this one's up. Smaller/nonexistent periods, no change in sex drive from when I wasn't on BC, and if I've been going whacko then my husband sure hasn't said anything Plus, while being able to take a pill every day may seem like an awesome habit, I figure I'll be taking enough when I'm older that I'd rather be free of it as long as I can. You can always substitute a vitamin during that time to keep up the habit though if you're wanting to try a non-pill method (just in case you end up not liking it and swap back to a pill later). Good luck with everything!

Definitely write it all down in a way that will help you get your thoughts in order! I do that whenever I have a lot of stuff to go over on the phone, since I'm terrible at keeping my thoughts in order during phone conversations. I will say that I find it a little odd that your doctor keeps looking for lower dose pills. When I went to my doctor about libido problems, her main recommendation was something with a higher dose of estrogen since that's a big factor in a woman's sex drive. In my case I was on Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo which killed my sex drive, then switched to the higher estrogen version and everything was much better.

I think that's an individual thing, though -- I'm on Implanon (progesterone-only, low-dose) and everything goes to 11. I'm obviously not a doctor, but I think it'd be worth it to try a progesterone-only method, just to eliminate one variable (and estrogen causes more side effects). If you want something simple, you could just try a POP. Or if you want to try Implanon, since it works for your sister, you could do that too -- it's easy in and out, and effects disappear almost as soon as you get it out. And you could ditch it anytime, it's not a big investment anymore, because

Well yeah, but if you're on progesterone-only you would be mainly dealing with your own natural levels of estrogen. I just meant a higher dose on a combination pill. Generally the progesterone levels on combination pills don't change much between high dose and low dose pills, it's the estrogen levels that change. And Implanon could still be a big investment if she doesn't have insurance.

Maybe try a progesterone-only pill for a while? All the ones you've been on have been combined. You could try a minipill first before you commit to something like Implanon or Mirena.

What up birth control thread. I've never posted in here, though I have occasionally referred to it off and on. Excellent OP. I'm mainly looking to gather some outside opinions on my particular situation. I've been on a pill (Loestrin 24 FE) for several years now, but Loestrin has become stupid expensive lately. I'm also about to move out of the country (I currently live in the US, moving to Ireland for a year or so), so I'm thinking it might be worthwhile to switch to something that I don't have to collect from a pharmacy so often, since I'm going to have to start getting all my prescriptions mailed to me. Right now I'm considering the ring or an IUD. Leaning toward the IUD because then, assuming no complications, I wouldn't have to worry about it at all while I'm away from my doctor. My main issue with the IUD is that I'm a massive worrier and the possible complications all sound really scary to me, and if anything happens while I'm overseas it would be more difficult, although certainly not impossible, to get it taken care of. I'm in my early 20s, never had kids, not in a monogamous relationship; I don't know how much all that actually affects the possibility of complications. Anybody have opinions on IUDs they'd be willing to share?

Yeah click the ? under my name to wade through my posts for Mirena info. I recently had a partial expulsion and I'm still gung-ho on them if that makes you feel better. The only reason I had the expulsion is because I did a dumb thing and didn't break the suction on my menstrual cup, too

Anybody have opinions on IUDs they'd be willing to share? Which IUD are you considering and what complications are you concerned about? Some of them are a little different depending on the IUD. If it's things like perforation or infection, those are both fairly rare and usually are the result of a doctor who's not very good/experienced at insertions. So find a doc who does a lot of IUD insertions. If you go through my posts, I have a Paragard (copper IUD) since early January and I can answer questions about it if you have any about it specifically. Or questions about having an IUD in general, I'm also happy to answer.

Oh jeez that's exactly my biggest fear, since I've been using a Diva Cup for a couple years now and I would be heartbroken to have to stop using it. But it's not going to pull out an IUD as long as you break the suction every time? e: Oh whoops new post. I'm thinking about Mirena, because I think I might have some metal sensitivities so I'm not sure if Paraguard would cause me any problems. I've also heard a lot about how it causes really heavy periods, although I don't know how much truth there is to that. My doctor sounded like she's done a lot of IUDs, so I'm not too worried as far as that goes. My biggest concern is mainly expulsion, because it seems like it would be more difficult to get it fixed overseas where I don't actually have a doctor.

But it's not going to pull out an IUD as long as you break the suction every time? I think nickel is the main concern there, although I've heard of people with nickel sensitivities using Paragard without a problem. I think it's probably a matter of how severe your allergy is but I could understand if you wouldn't want to risk it. It does cause heavier periods, but not too much worse than what I get naturally and really it's only one or two days of my period that are really crazy. I'd say with something like a Diva Cup it would be pretty manageable. It seems to normalize a lot after 6 months or so from what others tell me. Unfortunately, expulsion is one of those things that you really can't predict before it happens. Just from looking at the statistics and talking to my own doctor about it, it's not that common really and after the first year chances of expulsion really go down. Maybe you could look into doctors overseas just in case? I think most countries have doctors that specialize in dealing with travelers and expats. And IUDs are really popular around the world, so finding someone who does them might actually be easier (assuming you decide to get another if it expels).

There was definitely a study recently that found no increased risk of IUD expulsion with a menstrual cup.

Another thing to keep in mind about the Mirena is that it could stop your period and you wouldn't even need the cup. I haven't had a period since July. I loving love my Mirena. No babies. No periods. All the win.

I just remember when I was trying to decide on the right pill to try and mentioned having libido problems previously my doctor suggested a higher estrogen dose right off. It wasn't a miracle cure since it still put a damper on things a little (which I didn't realize until stopping the pill entirely) but I did have a reasonable sex drive rather than none whatsoever.

I can't speak for Mirena myself from experience, but I will say that after being on something like the pill having an IUD (or probably any kind of long-term birth control) is awesome. I love being protected from pregnancy without having to stop what I'm doing to take a pill everyday and never having to worry about stuff like drug interactions or anything. Even with the heavy, crampy periods I love it. Of course don't take that as me trying to persuade you one way or the other, that's just been my experience. I wish I had gotten my IUD sooner really after all those years on the pill.

Another very satisfied Mirena user chiming in. I used a menstrual cup with mine a few times but my periods stopped so quickly there wasn't really much chance to use them together. I got my first Mirena at 23 and used it for the full 5 years. Second one at 28 and used it for a year and a half until we decided we were ready for kids. I had no periods for 6 of the 6.5 years I used the Mirena. Fewer migraines than either on the pill or not using any hormones. Sex drive was always fine. Honestly it made me feel like I got a be a person instead of a woman, if that makes sense. Nothing quite as awesome to me as not having to worry about whether I was going to get my period in the middle of field work or a backpacking trip. Worst side effect I had was mild cramping whenever my bladder got too full. For those who care about such things, I got my cycle back almost immediately after the second Mirena came out. Got pregnant less than two months after it was removed. That one ended in a miscarriage but I have no reason to think it was related to the Mirena (I'd had two very normal periods before I got pregnant). Pregnant again less than two months after the miscarriage and I'm due at the end of this month with that one. So for me it was perfect. No periods or worries about pregnancy while I had it but almost immediate return of fertility after it came out. And I'm clearly every bit as fertile as I expected based on my family history (I got pregnant 2 of 3 months we tried), so it was definitely doing it's job while it was in. I'm planning to get another one as soon as I can after the baby comes and keep it until we're ready for a second child.

Has anyone had an infection whilst having an IUD in? My doctor made it sound like an emergency if it ever happened. I feel like I'm developing a yeast infection and I'm wondering if that constitutes going to urgent care, being seen regularly, or being seen at all.

Getting a yeast infection or bacterial vaginosis while you have an IUD is no big deal. It's getting gonorrhea or chlamydia that presents a problem, as those infections could move into your upper reproductive tract and cause pelvis inflammatory disease at a slightly higher rate with an IUD than without one. I had two yeast infections while I had the Mirena. It wasn't a big deal. Just get on meds for it.

They're mainly worried about STIs like gonorrhea and chlamydia (which is what they test for before they'll even put the IUD in). I don't know exactly what your doctor said, but they may have also been telling you to watch out for signs of infection caused by the insertion itself, which can be a rare complication. But if it's been a while you're probably in the clear there. Something like a yeast infection is no big deal though. I've had one since I got my IUD and I just used the usual over the counter treatment I always do with no problems. And I know one person who had hers inserted while she had a case of bacterial vaginosis and no one seemed all that concerned about it other than giving her some flagyl to take afterwards (which they probably would have done IUD or not).

So after getting the runaround from my OB/GYN where they were cancelling and rescheduling my appointments without notifying me , I show up for my appointment this morning where they proceed to tell me that my appointment has been cancelled and rescheduled AGAIN. Mysteriously, there was an appointment cancellation for my same exact time so they were able to fit me in. Anywho, I'm now the proud owner of a brand-new Nexplanon! I've already been through two Implanons, and as I previously mentioned in the thread I was worried that they made people switch to a different method after two, but the doctor never even said a word. Got a pap done at the same time so now I'm good to go for another three years!

Hoping insurance will cover at least part of it, but I guess we'll see. Glad to hear the stories from all the Mirena users! Definitely making me more confident about my decision.

Depending on when your policy went into effect, all birth control should be covered. I don't know if that means they'll pay it in full, but it's something. If not, Planned Parenthood is always worth looking into since (most) clinics will charge based on your income. I paid out of pocket for my IUD and even though it was still insanely expensive because of the way the clinic was funded, it was still cheaper than any other option I had with no insurance coverage.

Crossposting from sex questions thread: I've been having sex for around a month now with a girl who has a copper IUD, and we've both had some problems with irritation. I have noticed that there has been something rigid in there that didn't feel right and caused me some pain (to the point where we couldn't have sex for a few days because it hurt me too much). Now, she is having similar problems (painful to the point where we can't even start). She's noticed that if I go to one side more, there's no pain, and I noticed the painful rigid feeling on the side that hurts for her. We think this might be the string coming down from her IUD, but aren't particularly sure. Is this A Thing that happens? Any way of fixing it short of removing the device? smokyprogg fucked around with this message at 17:44 on Apr 10, 2013 |

smokyprogg posted:Crossposting from sex questions thread: I've personally never had anything quite this and my partner's never complained about sex feeling any different for him with the IUD, so I don't know if this is really "a thing" that normally happens. It would probably be worth getting it checked out by her doctor since it's both causing her (and you!) pain along with screwing up your sex life. Something doesn't seem right. Anyway, IUD question: I've had mine for about 4 months now and I'm just curious, do you still get little twinges and aches even after having the IUD a while? I'm just coming off my period and this time around I'm having all kinds of little aches in my pelvic area, kind of like I did in the weeks immediately after it was inserted. It's nothing severe and I only notice it when I move around a lot, it just seems weird to me since I've had it in there long enough to adjust to it.
