This caused pain/vomiting/inability to sleep for 3 months after insertion. I was promised it would improve, and told to just keep giving it time. Severe menstrual cramps continued the whole 2 years that I had this. Doctors promised many times over the 2 years that my symptoms were normal and/or not due to the IUD(both incorrect). Around the 9 month mark I began to develop progesterone hypersensitivity autoimmune disease. This continued to progress until I removed it. This new condition landed me in the ER multiple times due to anaphylaxis: asthma, heart palpitations, high BP, frequent fainting, extreme rashes etc. I had to quit my job because I was not functional on any level. Luckily I eventually figured it out.

Insertion was painful (almost passed out) but once it was in I was okay for a bit. I had no sex drive for the entire time I had it. After a few months I started noticing hair loss and kept getting intense migraines that had me missing work and school. Then I started getting heart palpitations that stopped immediately after I got it removed. My mental health took a turn for worse and hasn't been the same since.
