I wanted to try something different to the Pill and the coil came highly recommended. However, getting it inserted was horrifically painful, the doctor gave no guidance on which coil would be best, leaving me to choose. Over the course of a year, I've experienced low mood, rapid weight gain, depression and pain. The only positives have been convenience and stopping of periods.

In terms of contraception it has been brilliant. I've had it for 2.5 years and no pregnancy scares. The main problem I had with this is that it made my periods very irregular and long from the start and never went away. They said the first 3-6 months is normal but even now I have no idea when they may come and they last between 10-15 days long. I also can get spotting. I have tried taking P-O-P on top to help balance them out but neither of the two times I have tried has worked. My periods before having it were normal, 6 days and regular. I also get quite a bad migraine the first day of my period now which I didn't get before.
