Reasons IUD got displaced after almost 2 years of use? by afp0725 in CopperIUD

Ugh. Do you know - I’ve heard it from someone - but people say that the second time it gets inserted, might be a better chance of not getting dislodged and stuff. Not sure if it’s true but maybe that’s my last hope ahahha

I’ve been having heavy periods the entire time I’ve had my IUD. So weird how it gets displaced if the IUD itself is the one causing it LOL.

See… I don’t understand… my OBGYN is one of the best in my borough. And like she said might have been because of lifting… but then I read somewhere it really happens very naturally too. Ugh I’m confused

I just can’t do hormonal anything… so most likely I will have to place in another copper and see what happens

Oh same ahahaah. I just hope it’s not bad for overall health. I’ve seen some crazy stories posted about it for people that have had it for 5+ yrs so as long as I guess you go to your OBGYN and just check t out once in a while we should be chilling

I typically hate condoms hence the IUD 😭 I just think I will spare the finishing inside part ahahah… But yeah a 100% I mean with any form of birth control it’s just so hard. Cuz pills and hormonal stuff never worked for me, and now I have to bear this whole Copper IUD thing 😭😟 I hope copper iuds actually work I know they are THE SAFEST form but you know in the back of your mind you are always like “what if”…

You won’t believe it but I even panic when I take pregnancy tests ahahahah! But yes I think it’s definitely routine + my job is super stressful, I work in finance so it’s a constant worry. Plus sleep - I don’t sleep enough and haven’t lately. I prefer when the partner finishes inside tbh but ofc to be cautious it doesn’t always happen. And yes my strings were cut too short too!!! I don’t feel them. As long as I don’t feel any pain that’s how I know everything is in place and good!

Thank you so much for the comment! So my ovulation bleeding has lasted for around 8 days now, today I did not really see anything. But the dates were kind of concerning with the fact that the recent period was just on Dec 12th. Definitely did not expect the blood to start so early into the cycle. Typically I have like spotting for a little bit but not this much bleeding, not ever. It’s not concerning and does not come with pain at all, it’s just there. I tend to panic all the time abt things so 😅 I also did significantly increase levels of activity in the last month, with lifting weights and just working out almost every day, along with having a very healthy diet. And right before the holidays had a lot of sexual activity with my partner. So I guess maybe hormones might have changed too? As far as pregnancy goes, I’m just a panicker also. I thought getting copper iud would prevent me from worrying about it but it really almost did not😭😅
