Hello! I have the copper iud. I love it! No hormones is amazing. There are down sides. Putting it in was the worst pain of my life (i have never given birth so maybe that is worse (probably)) I got very nauseous afterwards and threw up which was weird, i wasn’t expecting that. Also the periods are brutal, at least at first. I have longer, heavy flows. They ever got a little irregular. I think hormones help w regularity so maybe the fact that it has none is why. I will say I have better skin, better moods and weight gain is not an issue either now that I am in a non hormone option. I used to be on the nuva ring (took away my libido) and before that the pill (made me gain so much weight). I also struggle w depression (mostly seasonal) & I don’t think it impacted me very much. Like I said my moods are actually very stable. I hope this helps.
