[MalyssaSue 65]

Looking into getting the IUD. Has any girls has this done after surgery? Any problems complications?

I’m still pre-surgery - but let me tell you - I’m a HUGE fan of the merina. I had huge bleeding issues and it reduced everything by 95% - what a blessing

Before my RNY I had a procedure called an ablation. The lining of the uterus is burned. I used to bleed verrrry heavy. After this outpatient procedure it is 100% better. Some women it stops cycle altogether.

If your done why not a hystorectomy?

If your done why not a hystorectomy?

Because reproductive organs are important in maintaining hormone levels. Hormone replacement is hard on the body. I know. I had the ablation donevand then a year later needed hysterectomy. Have been on hormones for 3 years and buddy talk about moid swings, hot flashes, cold chills...its a nightmare

[music1618 879]

I had a hysterectomy, but they left the overies.

I am not on hormone replacement. I was a bad bleeder and have had endometriosis and ovarian cysts all my reproductive life. They did two ablations with no relief. Finally after 5 years of asking my doc she finally took the uterus. I am so glad it is gone. No more heavy bleeding, or cramps. I still get the ovarian cysts from time to time. The iud was not an option for me due to an overly sensitive cervix. Just know you have lots of options.

Let me say mirena was awesome for my periods. However,it destroyed my orgasms!!! They were a piece of cake to have but the intensity was completely gone. My GYN thought I was nuts but had it take out 8 months later and the big O was back to normal! Just an FYI

Unwanted pregnancies do that too

[mommywifeandfat 32]

I have the mirena. The best part and only part I enjoy is the lack of cramps. I still get a monthly period and still heavy!! I also don't worry about getting pregnant now. But nothing is magical for me

Mine was before surgery as it was a requirement.

Have any of you used Paraguard? It is a hormone free IUD. I saw a commercial for it and was wondering about getting it.
