I Got Pregnant With An IUD

Did getting it put in hurt?

[@wellDUHitsSarah]

HillaryBanks Yes, but for me the pain of insertion was less painful than period cramps I have had in the past. This varies from person to person though (depending on your age, if you have had children already etc). Of course, as always, check in with your OBGYN and see what they think for you personally ☺️

It’s probably different for everyone. The one I had for my first pregnancy wasn’t that painful but super uncomfortable, but for some reason when I got one for my second pregnancy it hurt badly enough that I had to ask them to stop. I’m not sure if it was a mental thing since I already knew it would be uncomfortable, but for anyone who DOES get freaked out by it, the person doing it will usually be considerate to your discomfort as long as you’re vocal about it.

[@katesonawane]

N o l e e ! It isn’t a murder. not allowing abortions is literally taking away women’s rights. they should have the right to choose what happens to THEIR body. now imagine this: you are 13, and were raped. you were left pregnant. obviously you would want an abortion. it isn’t murder because the baby is unborn and would have a TERRIBLE life. also, what 13 year old could handle giving birth? or imagine this: you get pregnant, but have problems with your girl parts. you weren’t really supposed to give birth. The doctor tells you that the baby will be a still birth. why would you wait the rest of the time to go through the pain of giving birth when you know the baby will be dead. it’s terrible. obviously you would want the baby out of your body, it isn’t even living. people also get abortions because they know that the baby will have a terrible life. and don’t say “what about adoption” the person still has to give birth. and, they could be in foster care, which is VERY traumatizing. even being adopted induces a lot of trauma. now, normally I respect all opinions, but I don’t respect yours💗

If you really don't want to get pregnant, then you probably shouldn't be letting someone ejaculate inside of you, iud or otherwise. No birth control is 100% effective, people rely way too much on one form of contraception then wonder why they fall pregnant. Also, places where abortion is generally illegal still usually allow it in a situation where it could be fatal to the mother.

Anna Gump The group also is for women with positive experiences as well. It’s literally an informative group about the IUD. Not all of the posts are negative, nor are they all positive. This is a relatively newer form of birth control so there have been many problems presented with it. Everyone’s bodies are different. I joined it even though I did not have any problems with my Liletta at the time. I would rather inform people about these very common side effects so they know what they are getting into. But let’s face the facts here, hormonal BC has always come with risks and side effects, but this form of birth control is newer compared to others which means less research.

It is so crazy to be one of those small percentage but it really can happen to anyone. I was difficult for me to have mine removed even though the string was still there.

Yes, it's dependent on the woman, but not because of anxiety. I hurt so bad every time. It's too big, hurts by the time it's in halfway, the pain makes involuntary clenching which increases the pain. They say to relax, as if you can, because it's not anxiety over the test results or embarrassment from a stranger looking at your private parts. I know it's a medical professional, they are just doing their job. It's not like someone perving on you, & I'm not even bothered by a male doctor or PA doing my regular exam. It's from the freaking pain when the ultrasound wand goes in. I tell them that, tell them to just do the scan as quickly as possible so the pain ends quicker. So then they do have to force it the rest of the way in. The pain from the clamps that hold you open for exams/pap smear swabs hurts even more. It feels like they're stabbing me when they lock it open. With both things the pain doesn't stop til they take it out & then I'm so sore for hours after.

Each woman is different...you have to find a method that works for you and stick to it. Some women are fine with the IUD. For some, the IUD will migrate and for others it will fall out. Some women are fine on the pill and others get sick. Some people succeed with the rhythm method COMBINED WITH METICULOUS vaginal/hormonal monitoring. Some women (like me) cannot do IUDs or the pill and cant monitor their irregular periods so have no choice but to use latex condoms. Some women cant use latex condoms because they are allergic to the material. Some women use diaphragms (despite the fact that doctors advocate against them for reasons I'll keep to myself because I don't feel like arguing lol)...etc etc. Be your own advocate and do your own research. Don't let your partner make you de-prioritize your own health in favor of a specific type of contraceptive. Find what is best for you!!!

The shot didn’t work for me so after 2 weeks, 2 shots in my butt, and 100000 blood tests later they did surgery and squeezed the egg out. Turns out I had a cyst the size of my uterus on my other tube so they had to remove that one.

I’m a bit confused as to why the transvaginal ultrasound aka “sonogram” was so uncomfortable...?

And btw no I’m not “loose,” in face I have the opposite issue, 😅 so I’m kinda concerned that it felt that way for her 😬

[@tamarasmith9060]

It always hurts me VERY badly too. It hurts going in starting at about halfway in, causes involuntary muscle clenching which then makes it hurt even more. Also those clamps that hold you open for pap smear swabs/ exams. Those are even worse. I feel like I'm being stabbed inside when they lock them open. They always look at you & say to "relax, stop clenching", like you're capable of relaxing. I always wanna say "Let's see how relaxed you are when someone is stabbing you with a knife!" but I don't. I just tell them I'm not tense or embarrassed, it's pain & I can't control it. The muscles won't stop until they pull it out & the sharp pains stop. Just do it as fast as possible. I'm also always sore for hours after either one of those things is put up me. I think some women just really are much narrower than average.

[@JK-ig9tr]

Just like childbirth women have different pain levels so it's not surprising at all. I would never tell a woman childbirth isn't that bad because I didn't suffer that much. We are not clones. Thickness of muscles, placement of nerve endings and organs all differ from body to body.

Mine was made worse by the fact that the doctors accidentally cut my bladder during the procedure, so I had a catheter for a while after. But I can't imagine how much pain you must have been in! Mine was the tiniest bit split, to have ruptured and been full on bleeding internally must have been painful and scary! Mine was in 2017, I had had two miscarriages before that. Last year I managed to have my first baby and he was worth it all. How are you going? The whole process can be emotionally draining as well as physically.

TheSilentTypo mine was in 2017 too! I had a miscarriage the following year and were still waiting for our rainbow baby. Congratulations on yours and also, I’m very sorry for your losses.

But I have amazing fertility doctors and a supportive partner, so I’m luckier than many people in similar positions. ♥️

Oh wow, how incredible to meet someone with such a similar experience! I felt that way after the ectopic. I thought nothing could be worse than losing them.

Just to clarify if anyone was actually interested, but HCG is not only produced by women during pregnancy. It can also be produced by men or women if there is a tumor growing. However very few tumors actually produce HCG. Just thought i should put it out there.

Like she said, no birth control is 100%. Thing like her experience is rare, it’s not happening to every other person. So don’t let this deter you from BC

Bump!!!! Birth control struggles & finding the right one is better than dealing with babies!!!
