Copper coil (IUD) and irregular periods

The insertion wasn’t as bad as i was expecting but still quite painful and i had cramps for the whole day however was fine the next day. I struggled with a lot of back pain with the weeks following the doctors said could be sign of my body either rejecting it or getting used to it but it did get better with time. My moods are overall a lot better, on the pill i felt quite numb compared to what i feel now, i never had periods on the pill so i get quite down and irritated on them as everyone does but overall it’s nice to experience a range of emotions of a cycle. My sex drive has also increased a lot. I noticed i gained some weight on it and my breast have gotten a lot bigger and i do get very bloated for most of my cycle. My periods didn’t get heavier but i do get very painful cramps on them and while i ovulate. As i have only been on it for 4 months I’m still trying to keep an open mind to see if this settles down by the 6 month mark otherwise I may consider removal but overall i definitely prefer having non hormonal birth control

More research is needed! I had no issues with my first coil, following my second baby I had one re fitted and first few years were fine, for the 7 years I had it I have bled constantly for 4 years my fallopian tubes are full of fluid and the pain was horrific. A private consultant took the coil out 4 weeks ago and literally stopped bleeding the day after, I have had my first recognisable period in 4 years and it lasted for 4 days. Don’t wait to have it removed if you are having issues.

Made my periods way heavier and made m anaemic
