"after receiving my iud 6 weeks after my daughter was born i was just relieved i could not become pregnant and i was still able to happily breastfeed. periods were not an issue other than breakthrough bleeding around ovulation time.
my biggest issue with this iud is the toxic reaction i had due to the copper. i am diagnosed anxiety but i had never felt anxiety so bad in my life than on this thing. i avoided all and any social situations, i was unable to work and cope with life. i was placed on an extreme anti panic attack and anxiety meds that i could not wean off from. i went from being healthy and fit to gaining 50 lbs. after feeling frustrated i looked up my birth control and sure enough this is common!!!!!"
