Actually I've just gone off birth-control altogether since before G was born. I just keep track of my periods on an iphone app and it keep track of my fertile days too so I can AVOID those until we are ready to expand our family. I use to have horrible periods and that is why I started BC back in high school. Now, I just figure my body should be in its own natural rhythm and it is. I hope you get some relief soon!

I'm part of the small percent also; I nedd extra novacain, my epidural failed with a 9+lb baby and to top it off I developed a very rare heart condition from my last baby.Kraus House Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11202341154461834446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3363647318003354540.post-39531519347464939992012-10-23T19:06:43.348-04:002012-10-23T19:06:43.348-04:00I have had a copper IUD for 11 years, never had a ...I have had a copper IUD for 11 years, never had a problem just had it removed no ill effects. The one thing I have learned over the past year when it comes to your health is don't be quiet, don't let it go on because you are too busy or you feel like you are being a hypochondriac.

I believe she now gets the depo shot. <br /><br />And my epidural (and the 4 "top offs" that followed) NEVER worked for me. At All.

Second time I absolutely love it! I never had a mirena crash either the first time.

I've been on the Depot shot for years and years and love it. No period - nothing, nada, zip - forever, and it helps to manage my ovarian cysts (no period doesn't mean no hormonal cycle). One major drawback: weight gain has been brutal. I've taken that on, though, because I love everything else. I hope you find something that works well for you!Stacey @ Tree, Root, and Twighttp://treerootandtwig.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3363647318003354540.post-13294203362349649572012-10-23T17:38:06.669-04:002012-10-23T17:38:06.669-04:00I didn't do the Mirena because I didn't wa...I didn't do the Mirena because I didn't want to be on hormones, but I did the ParaGard because it had no hormones and could last even longer. I too had friends who loved theirs, and the freedom that came with it.<br /><br />By the end, I had a period that lasted for 21 days straight. It had been getting worse each month after the first few. The midwife said that my body did NOT like foreign objects and was trying to eject it each month. (Ironically, I once had a navel ring that fell out after a year, fully closed. My body just pushed it right out.) Needless to say, no foreign objects here. :)<br /><br />I'm so sorry you had to go through this!

To the point where I was sent to see an oncologist and have multiple cat scans done to rule out lymphoma. The oncologist determined that it was probably a result of the Mirena. And eventually they subsided. So I had to decide, get no period, but have occasional drenching night sweats, or take it out and have a period. I opted to leave it in :) The Flinn Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08857435606255409569noreply@blogger.com
