The Paragaurd and other IUDs of present time are safe and effective forms of Birth Control.
It could be argued that between the use of IUDs and vasectomies there is almost no need for the intrusive use of an abdominal surgery, tubal ligation.
Please ask your doctor about the use of IUDs, especially if you want a non permanent form of birth control, or you are nearing the end of your reproductive career.

I have a question do it change your period day cause i haven came on yet but i have been cramping so what should i do
I have an I u d and so far so good but I have a guestion. Ever since I got it I get this Oder when I get my period but when it goes away the oder goes away. I have to take three showers to make it go away.why do you think that is? This has never happened to me befor.
Is their any sidefect to having I u d? Cause ever since I got I u d, my arms and legs have been getting itchy. I was wondering if it could be the I u d that is causing this reaction.
I have gained about 15 to 20 lb and my periord last over 15 days is this normal with the IUD?
really i had mine for a year and ever since i got i had regulare periods but this month i had it 2x and it dosent wana go alway i have like a week with my period is it normal dont know so if you can help thanks
I used to bleed every 2 weeks and asked my r why and she said ut was an infection… So if there is abnormal bleeding see your dr…
I have had the IUD in the past, and had it removed to have my daughter, I am going to get another one put in. All of the symptoms that I am reading about are strange to me. I love the IUD! I have had no problems at all and after about two months of having it in my periods actually stopped! How is that for a win, win!
i wonder if it is because everyone is different then others,there fore,it reacts different!!
how much do abortion cost?
you have got to be joking !!!!!!!! i am only 18 years old and i even am smart enough to not have sex in less i love that persom and want a family with him !!!!! come one people have some dignity to not let your self look and sound like a hoeeeee this is wrong, you could at least have the baby and give it up adubtion!!!!!!! THINK THINK THINK !!!!!!
I HAVE to do a project over this over abortion and let me just say OMG !!!!!!!!! murder !!! thats what this is , because my cousin is 15 years old got pregnet and guess what she took control and it was hard but she is making it !!!!! IF YOU CAN LAY THERE AND HAVE SEX THEN YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO STAND UP AND TAKE CARE OF THE BABY !!!!!! if i am wrong please tell me kkkkkkkk
hello i have 7 children so i decided the iud was best for me since i have had an oder. and even when i dont have my period i think something is wrong or im i just over reacting
I got the iud put in me march of 2007 and have not have my my period ever since and i have gain a lot of weight and some times i have cramping , what should i do??
l had and IUD put 6yrs ago and l tried to get taken off and my obgyn told me they can,t find the string . Now l need to get a procedure one called heterscopy, where can l go for a decent price, sice l don,t hve insurance?
When I had my IUD (Paragard) inserted, after the insertion my gyno did an ultrasound to make sure it was properly inserted, did they do an ultrasound to verify that you didn’t inadvertently discharge the devise during intercourse, use of tampons or similar?
The IUD is great; I have had mine for a little over 3 years now, and love it. I wish my period did stop and yes with most birth control their come side effect, go to the doctor and get things looked at.
To Dianne, as for as someone getting an abortion it is her choice, you have to look at the situation as you will not be helping that person raise their child so how can you make a decision for them. Yes your little cousin is making it, but try taking a step back and see how much she is really doing for her child financially or is it your family that is actually taking care of the baby and her. When you have a baby as a minor, it does not fall on the ones who is pregnant, but it falls on everyone else that will be responsible. She is not even old enough to work more than 20 hours a week being a minor and she have to have working papers in order to work in the first place. Yes she stepped up to the plate to take care of the emotional and semi-physical aspect of being a parent, but ask her will she have any more. Yes sex is supposed to be about love, but not everyone believes loves off that motto, so try not to judge. Just as your cousin had the right to choice, allow others to make their own choices, not everyone have a family that is willing to take care of them. BTW I have a son, and it was my choice to not have an abortion, but I will not make that choice for anyone else. Thank you for you opinion and I wish you and you cousin the best, I am actually proud that you understand that sex is supposed to be about love, and hope that you continue to do research on information about sex, marriage so that when you are ready you will know a lot.
I HAVE A IUD AND ITS BEEN 4YRS OF HAVING IT AND ME AND MY BOYFRIEND WANTS TO HAVE ONE MORE BABY SO IM GOING TO THE DOCTOR TO HAVING IT TAKING OUT NEXT WEEK SO WE CAN TRY TO HAVE A BABY NXT YEAR IN OCTOBER.
The “pro-life” contingent must never be alloewd to get a toe hold. They are all about control over women and that control is not restricted to abortion. They have deep pockets and effective propaganda. Pro-choice cannot become complacent to the threat that the “pro-life” poses to women’s rights.A view from Canada
can you get pent %
I just got my iud out after 5 years of having it in i want to know how long does it take to get preg after i take it out?
Please go to the website of your IUD, I’m sure you will find that pregnancy could happen in as little time as the same day. Best wishes in conceiving a happy healthy baby (assuming this is why you had your IUD removed)!
What can happen if you don’t get your iud removed after it has expired?
IUDs are generally quite safe
But go to your doctor immediately if you have not been under their care.
hi, i hade iud 6 monts ago but this month my peroid came defrent it came not heve just little bit about 3 weeks and i still have it pleas i need help
It is very complex, i think they inejct a chemical into the babies heart which corses something which is simular to a heart attack, then you are induced, via a drip into the back of the hand, this starts labour, once your fully dilated you give birth,( congratulations your the mother to a dead baby)So yeah you go through a normal birth, but don,t get the delights at the end. Poor you.
informative site bt i also have a query.i had an IUD put in last week and even though i was nt yet ovulating( hav a 4 month old baby ,fully breastfeeding and had not yet had a period since baby was 6 weeks) i started bleeding.just a bit of blood everyday but no cramps or any pain.what could be the problem.am woryd

hi i have a iud for the past year and this month i got my period 2x and it seems not to go alway this is the fist time it happen ever since i got it is this normal?
have you looked into minera? it’s something they insert and has hormones but they are localized so you don’t have the effects of them like other bc. it stays 5 years then you replace it. you can have it removed if you change your mind on the kid front or just want it removed.we were in the same position, not ready to take the drastic action of a vasectomy but not wanting to have another child either. i’ve never done well on bc but minera has been wonderful thus far.
Thanks, Luciana, for sharing your personal experience with Minera with us. Obviously, every woman is different and that’s why they just need to talk to their gyn on a regular basis.
I am 44yrs old with 2 son oldest 25 and the youngest 14 would like to know is their any side effect with the IUD will i gain weight.
