Copper coil

I had bad reactions with all hormonal contraception, copper coil is the only one that worked for me. It's a bit crampy and if you have bad menstrual cramps it makes them worse but other than that it works

I had the copper coil, was perfect for me. Never had any issues with it, forgot it was even there tbh! Periods after the first couple months were normal in length and flow usually about 4 days long, and were regular every month. I had the same period cramps with it, they weren’t worse. Initially the cramps are bad but that soon went. No pain during sex. Partner never said anything about it either. Anatomy varies between people so some say they can feel it sometimes. I didn’t have any weight gain, acne or wild imbalance of hormones. I’m going to get it again. The good thing is if you try it for 6 months and dislike it you can have it removed easily. So worth a try for sure, but just give it time to settle x

Thank you girls!! How did you find the insertion process with this coil ?X

I found it very uncomfortable honestly. But they said because I hadn’t had a baby yet putting it up through the cervix is more uncomfortable than if I had had a baby. So paracetamol and ibuprofen will be your friend, but it was really quick. Now I’ve had a baby for me it’s no worse than cervical checks as for me I found those really uncomfortable too. X
