I dont think that this is very common considering situations, so i dont wanna scare anybody from trying one, coz it has been great, minus these past few wierd days.
I had a copper IUD inserted two weeks ago. I was so thrilled to get it. I am allergic to condoms, pills(alease..sp?) and veeeery allergic to the depot.
I have only had a lil bit of bleeding and no really bad pains. until recently.
I have never had kids fyi.
On Saturday the pain started horribly. half way through the day is when it struck. It was so bad that i ended up crying in the S-bahn station... coz i was hardly able to walk. so i had to sit or stop walking quite a few times on the way home. I wasnt able to go to the doc coz they were closing early on saturday. in the evening I started having contractions and started bleeding, som, but not lots. The iud didnt come out. Then when i fell asleep that night there was no pain. I did take and pain meds coy i was undecided if i wanted to go to a hospital and if i did then i wouldnt want to had my meds conflict with hospital ones. So i decided to deal and become a stronger person. I did lie in the tub with warm water with did help quite a bit.
Sunday i laid in bed most the day. Far less pains. I noticed some of the pains happed some time after i ate. (both days).
So today i went to the gyno and had everything checked out. Far far less pain. didnt start and only some in the evening.
The doc gave me an ultrasound and we saw that the iud is still perfectly fit in place, has not budged at all. and there is no inflammation.
So the doc and I decided to leave it in. I would rather keep it if i can.
She said that the body is still getting used to it. and it will accept it eventually.
She said the bleeding is normal.
I discovered when i had painful contractions, if flexed and tightened all of my pelvic muscles, it help stop the pain and prevent some of the contraction type thingys.
I still havent taken any pain killers yet (I usually have a abnormally high pain tolerance). i would rather not meds if i dont have to.
does anybody have ideas how ease pain or help reduce body weirdness?
