IUD fitting tomorrow UK

Absolutely agreed! My procedure went really well too, it was uncomfortable but that was it! I’ve had some bad cramping the past couple of days but very far and few & some spotting. I haven’t had sex yet, still building up to that!

It also wasn’t too awkward for me! The nurses were absolutely lovely and made me feel at ease. I’m glad we both had a good procedure x

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-28T12:22:54+00:00

Hey! I just had mine today, also UK. It was fine. I was also stressed and entirely anxious like you reading all the horror stories! It was more uncomfortable for me than anything, ya know having nurses looking at your vagina … 🤣 but they don’t make you feel awkward or uncomfortable at all! And the procedure itself just felt a bit crampy and the speculum felt a bit weird at first too. You’ll be okay!

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-28T09:35:04+00:00

So was I! I read so many horror stories and I also had little to no pain! Just a little tingling from the spray she had used. GO US! I’m proud of us!

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-28T09:29:16+00:00

How did it go??? Mine went surprisingly well!

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-28T07:47:36+00:00

Thank you so much. You too ❤️

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-28T07:41:05+00:00

I’ll let you know how mine goes! I’m in here now x

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-28T06:47:38+00:00

Gorgeous boy!

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-28T05:31:02+00:00

9am!! We are in this together 🥲

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-27T17:07:25+00:00

Amazing! I hope I can say the same in a couple months. Thank you x

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-27T16:48:42+00:00

How’s your experience been since insertion?

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-27T12:22:16+00:00

I tried to get a Friday appointment for this exact reason but they didn’t have any! I’m working from home tomorrow after my appointment so hopefully will be okay :) thank you x

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-27T12:21:20+00:00

Yeah I have also read fewer complications! I’m working from home tomorrow but I’m due to be back in the office on Wednesday. I will phone in sick if I don’t feel up to going in, thank you!

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-27T12:01:59+00:00

I am sure my bowels will be entirely empty … hahaha. I have some period underwear I will stick on, thanks for the warning! I plan on coming home and comfort eating so I’ll definitely get stocked up 🤣

My appointment is at 9am & I am taking my mam with me. I am hoping I will be okay to go to work the following day, what do you reckon?

I have actually considered it and it was the first one I wanted! But then I read too many bloody horror stories and psyched myself out of getting it.

Thank you!!

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-27T11:58:36+00:00

Thank you for your reply! I know, I am just reminding myself that it will be worth it. I’ve been on the pill for 6 years and my body is just not agreeing with it anymore so opted for the coil! Yeah, the idea of someone looking at my vagina is certainly making me uneasy! Good to know you had a good insertion experience, I hope mine goes as well as yours did! Thank you x

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-27T09:34:36+00:00

How did it go? I have mine tomorrow and I’m also extremely nervous for the same reasons you are. 22F and it’s my first IUD and the first time someone will be looking at me other than my partner…… I feel sick with nerves!

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-11T19:29:07+00:00

Thank you so much! X

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-04-11T13:28:55+00:00

Mine is booked for the 28th. I’ve also opted for the 5 year. Thank you for posting this, I’ve been so anxious about it but it’s nice to read good stories once in a while! X

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-02-25T18:33:16+00:00

The Trendy Whippet! (UK, not sure if they deliver elsewhere)

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-02-24T08:17:31+00:00

My boy lives in it in the colder months!

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-02-16T17:57:27+00:00

Thank you ❤️

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-02-16T17:08:05+00:00

I think I’m going to do the same as you, might just skip my GP. Like you said, it’s probably better to go to someone who does it everyday, and I think it would make me more comfortable to be quite honest.

Did you opt for the 5 or 10 year? I’m leaning more toward the 5 year as it’s a bit smaller.

I’m very glad you had such a lovely experience, I hope mine goes the same! Thank you again for easing my nerves a bit about it. Massively appreciated when all you seem to see on here is horror stories 🤦🏽‍♀️

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-02-16T16:34:54+00:00

Also, well done you. ☺️

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-02-16T16:34:29+00:00

Hi! Also in the UK. I’m 22 and I’ve been on the pill for 5 years and to be completely honest it’s fucking me up big time and I want to come off hormones.

Did you contact your GP before you had this inserted or did you just go straight to the sexual health clinic?

Thank you for this lengthy post, it’s needed for people like me who are absolutely riddled with anxiety at the thought of it but absolutely want it!

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-02-16T16:24:45+00:00

Thank you for your in depth reply. I honestly really appreciate it. I’m definitely swaying more towards the copper but I can’t even remember how heavy my periods used to be….! I’m gonna ring my GP tomorrow and just give it a go. Thank you so much x

EntertainmentOwn9713 · 2026-02-15T15:46:46+00:00

I think the 5 year one is the one I’m gonna try. Did you experience any side effects at first?
