OMG thank you! I can relate so much! I just had my IUD removed today and feel so relieved. It was almost instant relief. I couldn't believe it so I decided to look up some videos and came across yours. I'm SO HAPPY we got this foreign object out of our precious bodies!

Me too! It was literally instant relief

So relatable thank you. After insertion I had several cramps that I would describe as the same feeling as early stage or even mid labour pain that unlike contractions wouldn’t give me a break. I had 20 days of heavy constant bleeding to the point of almost passing out no doctors or health professionals would take me seriously. I felt like no one really listened to me either.

Thank you so much! After having my iud for 3.5 years. I’m starting to realize the gradual health issues I’ve been experiencing are due to the copper iud. Hair thinning, weight gain even when I’m eating right and working out, heavy periods, 2 week long periods, brain fog, Recently back pain and what sold me was it prevents the fertilized egg from coming into fruition. I’ve always been a super healthy person and in February of last year had an emergency gall bladder attack and they had to remove it! I’ve seen people mention that it can effect There digestive system as well… Not until this past month that my period has been even longer and started earlier than normal. Got an ultra sound and from the naked eye everything looks good, but something just clicked and I’m doing my own research and taking my health in my own hands. Going to schedule removal and try to research a more natural route🙏🏾 Thankyou

Can’t wait to get my IUD taken out tomorrow! Thanks a ton for this eye-opening & super-informative video! God bless you 💕 Hoping that I find relief after that. Keeping my fingers crossed 🤞

I had PPD after my third baby, so I was afraid to take/use any hormonal birth control, and so I got the copper IUD. This was over a year and a half ago, and I finally got it out this week!! The long list of random symptoms that started happening over that time is insane. I had no clue it could take such a toll on my life. Thank you for this video!!

Really excellent video! Haven’t seen such an informative while also negative review of the copper on here yet. I’ve had mine for 4 years and my periods are now 9-14 days long, extremely heavy and full of awful cramping. Experiencing a lot of the same things you described plus now being low on iron and needing to take supplements. OBGYN immediately recommended switching to minera as it has few hormones and no estrogen. I’m very hesitant as I love my IUD, just hate my monsters periods, but I really needed to hear your advice about shopping for doctors! Thank you for sharing

I highly recommend reading the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler. I am in the process of reading it now and it’s SO informative about how women’s bodies work. I feel like it should be a textbook in high schools haha!! I’m shocked by how much I didn’t know about how my own body works. I am learning about and starting to do the fertility awareness method of birth control and it’s actually much simpler than I thought it was going to be. It might be something worth looking into! In my experience, most obgyns only know to recommend different conventional methods of birth control because it’s what they are most familiar with. But it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s what’s best for your body! I thought I’d really miss the security of my IUD but I was honestly ready to never have sex again if it meant not having the worst periods ever lol (kidding but also not really). But now that I’m learning more about fertility and alternative birth control methods, I am feeling so confident about my choice to get it removed. I’m so sorry you’re dealing with monster periods right now 😫😫 but don’t give up!! You’ll figure out what works for you!! I hope you find an awesome and supportive doctor and I hope your periods get better!! 💗💗 Sending love and non-monster-period vibes 😉🤗

I’m getting mine removed next week !! I am at the 3 year mark and having the same side effects as you listed . I also got extreme nausea and stomach pain. I thought it was something dangerous so I went to the emergency room and every test was fine. They never mentioned iud. I got my period and all the nausea and pain immediately went away, which shows it’s definitely the iud that’s causing this. Can’t wait to get it removed !!

This video has quite frankly validated so much of my experience lately and I'm feeling confident now in getting my IUD removed end of this month. I've been experiencing SO MANY autoimmune-type issues in the last two years (i've had my copper IUD for 9, and it's since slipped down a bit) as well as have developed uterine polyps and an ovarian cyst. Learning that IUDs essentially cause inflammation by function is frankly, so eye-opening. THANK YOU for sharing this information. I can't wait to get mine removed soon.

Was great to watch your video. I cannot take hormonal birth control as it makes me nauseous and depressed. I thought the copper IUD was going to be my saviour. I then experienced terrible anxiety and brain fog from the copper. I’ve now had it removed and feel amazing again. I have not had a period for 2 months since removal either!

Thank you for sharing your story! I'm approaching the 3 year date of having my IUD and my symptoms are similar to, and a little milder than, how you described them at your ~4ish year. My side effects were really barely anything to speak on for the first 2 years, and then I started noticing that they've been gradually getting worse. I'm starting to think this iud may not be entirely suitable for all bodies to withstand a full 10 years of. I've been wondering and wondering what exactly this iud was doing to me and finally I found your video, so thank you again, because it's a really great stepping off point for information! Definitely going to keep doing research and maybe cut off my time with the iud to 5 years. Maybe I can take a break, then come back to it?

There is a massive variation in oxidization. I see people with IUDs that come out after 10 years looking brand new. Meanwhile mine came out without any copper left on the plastic just 7 months after insertion 😂 I'm laughing now cause it's been a while already, but it was madness. My liver was about to fail from all that copper. But like they took out the IUD, and it was all black copper dust mixed with ugh tissue. Thing is... Good luck finding any doctor who can do good enough imaging to see how fast your IUD oxidizes. They sure didn't see the status of mine, they kept saying it was all good. Until they got it out, then we were all like, well, it doesn't actually look good besides the plastic. 😂 (No, no metal sensitivity, nothing, just a very fiesty uterus that decided to turn the copper rod into dust.) I read a lot of IUD stories since, and it definitely seems like a thing that people don't tend to notice early that anything is off. But then suddenly the issues kick in, and they never calm down again (except with removal). So my totally non scientific two cents is if it starts to oxidize fast for whatever reason. Get it out. If you loved it originally, you might want to get a fresh one. Otherwise find a different method. I hope science catches up with me at one point 😂

thanks so much for sharing! also to those saying she is exaggerating.. lol if you want to talk to other who had bad experiences, hi. while i was making my report to my local version of the FDA, i counted 18 different bad side effects. i think there was even more, i just counted the worst ones.

The cramps are so painful with the copper coil plus the increase in appetite and weight gain is horrible

Hey! I just got my copper iud removed... praise God! Lol I was in denial that the copper iud could do any harm to me... because its non hormonal... and because of my denial i missed some sure signs which where hair loss, intense hot flashes and being able to cry so easily. This was after my 3 year mark. First two years or year and a half i didnt notice much. So glad to be done... never planning on using any for of bc ever again... theyre all bad news. But you mentioned that you started having dreams and where wondering what it is... I've heard that dreams can be a way of God speaking to us... and then also... I've heard that too much copper in our bodies triggers our "reptilian" brains and separates us from the source God. I believe in God like Jesus... but anyways. Thought I'd add... not sure if the second part is factual actually but kinda fun to think about :)

I didn’t have any bad symptoms but my period did go from 4 days to like 9-10 😩 no cramps and pretty light period! But sooo looong!

I had the same exact experience getting my copper iud out this month

If you are having heavy periods you can also eventually get low on iron. I also have all the symptoms you mentioned, ive had mine for 10 years and going to see my dr about gwtting out.

I’ve had mine in for a week but the cramps have me in bed all day and crying from the pain. I’m getting it removed in two days. If this is what it’s going to be like every month I can’t do it. Call me a baby but this has given me nothing but horrible problems all week and the insertion was excruciating and has been causing nonstop debilitating cramping. Wish I never got it.

If you don’t mind me asking, what do you use for birth control now?

Same doing the pull and pray now !

I had paraguard for about 2 yrs and got pregnant. I was thankful for the nonhormal aspect as I knew I missed a period & cauht the pregnancy early. Apparently it had dislodged so the pregnancy was safe and normal and we now have my almost 5 yrs old girl along with our 2 others. I ended up with the paraguard again and just got it removed May 8th. I was one of those with the fine experience BUT now I am 7 days late...not pregnant just MIA period. Im so suspicious because if it was hormone free why is my cycle gone so far :( Reddit helped me see I'm not alone but I'm so sad and hate the waiting game because we want another.

My mini is giving me anemia but other than that its the best method I have ever tried. The numbing gel made my insertion painless. Canadian copper iuds have a smaller size line and apparently that alleviated the side effects I got from skyla the synthetic hormone iud.

I have this only couple months in now but my periods are eregular and now twice in one month two periods I been loosing alot of weight for some reason and I get this weird discharge come out

Guy I am supposed to get one in two months:( this video made me rly nervous now. I have been on the pill since 15 originally for acne, but now (at 18) my acne had mildly come back so i feel like what’s the point of the pill if it’s not going to help my acne and the pill has made me lose all libido which has affected my relationship a lotttt so i want something non hormonal… which is why i chose the copper iud. My heart rate is also so high for my age and bmi considering i go to the gym, run, and live a moderately active lifestyle, which is a side effect of the specific pill I’m on (the generic version of Yasmin but still exact same pharmacological composition). I have no complaints about the pill other than that, and heart rate the more serious side effect, I didn’t even know about until awhile ago, no weight gain, no mood swings, no other issues at all! Maybe I am opening a can of worms i shouldn’t be and just stay on the pill… i just hate the fact i have unnatural hormones in me when on the pill. My dr has said it’s completely person preference but if it were my preference i’d be on nothing at all (which probably wouldn’t be smart considering i don’t plan on having kids anytime soon). Anyway i totally over shared but i just need other ppls opinions:/

Does your acne getting worsen or better after removing copper IUD?

Hi there Did you bleed after removal as I’m second day I’m still spot bleeding it’s making me worried is this normal

I’m in shock !

Did your hair grow back healthy after removal

I had brain fog and felt anxiety. One day i had a bad day and it fell out on its own!! My body rejected it!

I had the kyleena iud (hormonal) for 1 year before removal and also had no dreams during that time.. same as with the pill. I'm also using the fertility awareness method and decided against a copper iud, thanks to videos like yours. The only way I could describe being on synthetic hormones is feeling like your either going through adolescence (pre-pubescent) or menopause and your energetic/emotional state is a flat line with few highs or lows.. but that "flat line" brings more lows than anything. That was my experience anyway.

I’m still worried about ectopic pregnancy cause those symptoms are pretty similar and it can occur even with the IUD. I’m not sure what to do except wait it out. Hopefully that’s not the case.

I have been desperately trying to loose weight the past 5 months. Im suspecting the iud Cooper being the reason why I'm having trouble loosing weight despite working out everyday and eating healthy... Anyone experienced that here?

I don’t have any other side effects, just started researching the connection between IUD and weight gain. Did you have yours removed?

Its so infuriating that since Roe was overturned a lot of men kept saying use birth controll, its so easy... 😐🤦‍♀️ And then you see that EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM has horrible side effects!!

Why so you can be all alone with cats when you hit 40? Sad. Don’t get tricked into being all alone like I did. I wish I never let my girlfriends use birth control

I have my iud since 2019! Its leaving tomorrow 😂

Are you a doctor ??

Damn it’s so sad women have to go through all this for birth control, like just have children and be natural. I would rather it be this way as a man.

@rosiehalstead7761

Good for you, but a lot of people with uteruses don't want children and there's no long term birth control for people with penises, so unfortunately this is what we have to go through.

Over exaggerating it a bit

Everyone is definitely different! I have friends that have no issues at all with IUDs but for me it was the worst experience of my life. It was NOT for me. I’m so so glad I got mine removed.

Such a unessesary comment first of all. Why would someone elses experience be exaggerated? That does not make any sense. Second of all there is thousands of women having severe issues with the copper IUD, just because you might not be one of them does not mean it does not happen to others.
