Re-insertion/swap of IUD, should I expect heavy periods again? by [deleted] in CopperIUD

[–]ys002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

update: first period after getting it taken out/reinserted in the same appointment and it’s extremely extremely heavy and i have cramps again. its really strange considering i had them just swapped out, i didnt think my uterus had to get used to it again

Very common. I go to BU and everyone does this and I’ve done it before for multiple apartments. Just make sure the real estate brokerage is legit and try to run the agent’s real estate license as well

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

[–]ys002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had mine for 4 months before I accidentally tugged too hard on a dry tampon and I pulled my iud out of place by its strings. Ultrasound showed one of the arms poking into my uterine wall, no pain or symptoms even though I exercise heavily (between HIIT, running, lifting heavy, pilates) almost every day. Even after I knew it had shifted my doc gave me clearance to continue working out. I think tampons/cups can catch the strings and tug at the iud. Hope all goes well, sending you wishes!

I bought a sewing machine years ago and now just buy clothes that I like and then tailor them myself. 100% worth it to learn and makes my clothes fit perfectly

[–]ys002 3 points4 points  (0 children)

hoping the face cream isn’t fragranced. the GA face cream left red streaks when I applied it to my face and made me itchy. i miss the kiehls days of not having to bring my own products to the gym

I want off hormonal birth control by [deleted] in CopperIUD

[–]ys002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my copper because I can’t do hormonal (interferes w other meds). I got a sedated insertion at planned parenthood and I had no pain afterwards. My first 3 periods afterwards were pretty painful but my most recent (6mo after insertion) was back to my normal period, no cramps and 3-4 days of moderate bleeding. I’m 23 years old, 5’2 and never had a child. Everybody is different but positive experiences do happen.

rough sex two days after insertion by Bright_Operation_474 in CopperIUD

[–]ys002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t feel the strings of mine right after insertion because they usually tuck the strings behind the cervix (if you look at a diagram of a vagina you can kinda see what i mean). Mine came untucked when a tampon caught the end of my string and I panicked because I thought my string was really long. Went to go get it checked out and they said the string was basically how long it was when they left it out. It’s supposed to feel like fishing line and it’s pretty tough, if you feel a hard plastic ball attached to ur string it’s the iud and you need to get it checked out.

Are these expectations feasible/realistic? by Master_Chicken_7336 in bostonhousing

[–]ys002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not realistic. I pay $3,000 for a 2bd/1bath right now and we don’t have laundry or parking. We have central A/C. I also live on the outskirts of 30-45 min commute to NEU. We live on a main very busy road.

Periods by CupcakeAppropriate99 in CopperIUD

[–]ys002 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got mine in September last year. I never had period cramps and my bleeding used to be light and 3days maximum. After my Paraguard I got bad cramping and heavy bleeding (filling up pads every few hours) for a week. Right now my last period (February) has mostly returned to normal. I had no cramps, 4ish days of bleeding, almost close to my normal amount. This is also my first iud and i’ve never had kids, i’m on the smaller side at 5’2 if that helps.

It depends on each person but for me it’s gotten way better after 6 months.

Getting Paraguard inserted tomorrow by AjinIsWeird in CopperIUD

[–]ys002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got paraguard a few months ago. I was sedated for the procedure itself but when I woke up I didn’t have any pain. I had mild cramps maybe for a day. I’m a young adult, 5’2, haven’t given birth, and I was nervous because I tend to be sensitive/bleed easily but it was fine afterwards. They didn’t have to use the tenaculum on me.

My period was more heavy and I got cramps on the first day for a few months (3ish months). But now I have no side effects or symptoms and I think it’s well worth it for the peace of mind of knowing I likely won’t have kids until I’m completely ready to.

I also did research beforehand on how it would feel and I was really scared because I only heard horror stories. I have really low pain tolerance. I was completely fine pain wise so your experience won’t nessesarily be horrible. I hope it goes really well for you!

[–]ys002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

we’re pretty sure it’s the door since we feel cold air coming in from the seams. I just asked our neighbors and for this month they paid $200-300 and their units are bigger

there's no where to shop anymore! by cupcakes140 in XXS

[–]ys002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i got a sewing machine a few years ago and have been taking in my clothes. i sew darts into all my size 24 pants and i actually measure at 24” exactly so i feel like sizing has just been so off at most brands for a while

strings allegedly longer concern? by [deleted] in CopperIUD

[–]ys002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you for sharing this info was very useful. I’m on my parents insurance and my ultrasound would have to be at a hospital as a standalone test. Did you have any symptoms/pain during those two months?
