The first IUD I had was perfect. And, I'm sorry about your cycles, but yeah, hormones is what the docs would probably use.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08692002093725293884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6342247537813392751.post-64695744810873757812010-05-28T17:12:48.166-04:002010-05-28T17:12:48.166-04:00Girl, I can so relate to your frustration right no...Girl, I can so relate to your frustration right now. I have never had a regular cycle, but not since my teen years has my period been this late...I'm currently 43 days late for my period. And decidedly NOT pregnant. The thing stopping me from going to my gyn about the whole thing is knowing they'll want to place me on some form of hormonal birth control, which turns me inside out emotionally. Even the low doses. I had considered a copper IUD at one point, but after reading up on potential side effects and risks, I was leery. I'm thinking you just solidified that decision. Wow. Prayers that you feel better soon!MamaDrama77https://www.blogger.com/profile/15008357926195986033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6342247537813392751.post-804158831619617362010-05-28T16:51:39.887-04:002010-05-28T16:51:39.887-04:00Oh honey!

I do however (WARNING: TMI alert!) have periods of 7 days long that are HEAVY! That is new, but I don't know if that's a change in my body since having a baby or a change in my body because of the IUD. I hope you are ok, that you don't have an infection and that you can get some serious resolution quickly.Mellissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15057885933772452092noreply@blogger.com
