The copper (non-hormonal) IUDs are the only ones that are supposed to make periods worse, that's why im thinking of going with the hormonal one. It actually lightens the periods in 90% of women, and in 20% of women, their periods stop altogether in the first year. I made an appointment with my doctor in about a week and a half so I will talk to her and hear her feedback about all this, but the more people's opinions the better!
dutch.lover Reviewed by dutch.lover on . IUDs Hello everybody, I wanted to ask y'all about IUDs. I recently started considering getting one, as I am kind of fed up with the birth control pills/patches/rings out there and I don't want to have kids for quite a long time (5+ years). I have been reading a lot about it, and it sounds really great- I wanted to know your experiences with IUDs, if anyone has/had one. If I got one, I would get the hormonal one rather than the copper one i think. Rating: 5
