"i&#039;m 22, one child. i got the iud inserted i wanna say about 3 months ago. the surgery was just a quick pinch that gave u normal menstrual cramps during/ afterwards. something any female can get over. i suffer from the wonderful thing of bv and that first month or so i was bv free prior to insertion, had a regular period with same symptoms but actually ended earlier and got slightly lighter. after my first period i didn&#039;t spot or anything. had nipple soreness, oily skin, acne, headaches that next month thought i was pregnant but ended up having a late period i&#039;ve been bleeding every since(about a full month) and now i&#039;m just waiting for another full period to come. trying to wait out first 6 months before i decide to get it removed"
