I have pmdd, I could not track my cycle with an iud fitted, it helped initially then made me so much worse. I seen 3 doctors who didn't help, I'm now treating holistically, tracking my cycle and tailoring my food, lifestyle, exercising to my cycle and Somatic healing.

Had this fitted just over 5 months ago. I blead continously for the 4 months, every day. Still experiencing bleeding, but not all the time now. I have no idea if I've had a period since having it fitted as the bleeding I've been experiencing acts like a period, however it does seem to be improving now. Unfortunately it has made my skin quite spotty, especially my face and back. 5 months on and i still am experiencing cramps, mainly in my right thigh/groin area, but it coincides with bleeding afterwards. On the plus side, I really have not experienced many headaches or weight gain!
