Im on the no estrogen birth control pills bc im breastfeeding my baby girl and don't want her getting more estrogen than she needs
I had liletta before I had my son ill be ggetting it back next Tuesday my son is almost 5 weeks old im ebf I loved the liletta I had no problems with it
I had a liletta and was exclusively pumping. Was told it wouldn't hurt my supply, but for some reason it tanked my supply at about 5 months pp. But it was nice not to have a period pp. But about 18 months after getting it, it migrated and came half way out. Ended up in the ER to have it removed
@Victoria Aguilar I won’t do the pill again because I got pregnant twice on them.
@Chantelle that sounds horrible so I won’t be doing that one lol
I had both the mirena and lil Etta before I got pregnant, I didn’t notice a difference. I personally didn’t get my period on it, and I felt the best with the hormonal IUD since the hormones are localized (I got sick with the pill and other methods) I just had my 6 week appt and I got the merina again!
I will say, ask the have the string cut a little long, my second IUD the string were short and got sucked up, so I had complications with removal! Plus when the string is long it will curl up vs being short and pokey which makes it more comfortable for your partner
I had the mirena coil (hormonal one) for 7years before we had our son (well I had 1 for the max 5 years then another in for 2 years) and loved it! I didn’t have periods, and I didn’t have to worry about it for 5 years, I felt fine on it. Once I have this baby I’ll be having it again, highly recommend xx
I have mirena and still BFing fine
I had iud for 3.5 years and it was the mirena I believe it made me gain weight so next time I’ll be getting the non hormonal one
I’m curious too of peoples answers!! I was looking into the copper iud by my doctor said the periods are usually 7-10 days and heavier than usual and I’m like NOT about that lol that sounds absolutely terrible
