Anyone had an IUD??
| Wed, 04-07-2004 - 5:54am |
Hello, I'm an intruder from the Ivillage UK boards and had my baby boy Damien 23rd January 2004.I was wondering if anyone has had an IUD and can help me. I did have one fitted after the birth of Gabriel but can't remeber that far back whether my symptoms are normal. OK, my IUD was fitted on Monday, I have had slight spotting since but then this morning it is more like a period. I don't have any pain or funny smells (TMI) and my GP has given me anti-biotics just incase.
The thing is, my last period was 2 weeks ago today and I was wondering whether it could be another period (have come out in spots, put on a couple of pounds etc)? Can periods be irregular after childbirth. It makes me look like a complete dimwit asking these questions after having has 3 children but I have honestly forgoten what my periods were like after Gabriel and after Tom was born I had the Depo injection so didn't have any periods.
Is it normal to have period like bleeding after insertion?? arghh my periods were really irregular before my first baby, very regular after my 2nd and it seems that they are up the spout again!
Oh the joys of being a woman lol
Many Thanks
Love Mia

Well, I was just lurking bout on the boards. But, I got my IUD about 5 mos. ago. The inserted it during my period which made me goes few days longer. I had lots of spotting before or after my period. But, my doctor told me it is because it is on my uterus so what I my have normally not seen without it (i.e. spotting) I am seeing since it is open. It has gotten better bout the 3rd month. Now, I am with a regular period with little to no spotting or the spotting my be my period. Plus I had the Depo for 5 yrs previously so my period does come and go from spotting to full cycle t ny given time since I stopped the Depo.
