Hello ladies,
I have a few quick questions about getting a copper IUD.
BCP do not work for me, and I am looking for a long term BC method. The only stipulation is that I am 20 years old (and have not had children). I find it imperative that I be on some form of long-term BC that does not involve hormonal methods. I am worried and nervous that I won't be able to get one. Do you think I will be denied the chance to get an IUD? Does anyone have any similar stories? I need as much information and advice as you can give me!

Much thanks!

The procdure wasn't bad, very painful cramps for less than a min. The rest of the day I had cramps but then I was back to normal.
I love my IUD!! I love never thinking about it, and it is really side-effect free for me. I had bad cramping with my first period but so far none with this second period. I'll be happy to answer any of your questions if I can.
Good Luck!
Jenn
