That’s an amazing story! Your wife is a god damn warrior!

That’s an outrageous increase!

Ohhh in that case I’ll definitely check it out! I’ve definitely noticed a change

Sorry your insurance situation is bad :( Might be worth going in for an initial consult at the PP near you just to get a feel for the place?

Thank you for sharing your experience, hope mine is similar!!

I’m thinking that’s what it is as well. Haven’t heard of Replense, will look it up now :)

Thank you!

Sorry, should have specified. I went with Mirena!

Glad it’s not just me!

Glad to hear it! And definitely, this level of mood lability isn’t manageable in the long term!

I was FREAKING OUT about access to health care before I moved to the US, and knowing that I could use PP went a long way towards reassuring me I’d be ok

It’s so great not having to remember a pill!

Yay for having your sex drive back!!!

Hello December IUD buddy! It has been a total game changer! :D

I’ve heard from lots of people that they bled a LOT post-insertion. I barely bled at all, I spotted for a day and that was it. Nervous about my first IUD period though!!!

I’ve never been to an OBGYN for BC, I’ve always just gotten them from my regular doctor. I think that’s why it wasn’t picked up earlier

I kinda wish I’d given myself a few months off, but I’m so happy to have worry free sex now! :)

That’s why I got the IUD too!

Thanks for sharing your experience! I’m also crampy, and I can’t tell the difference between IUD and IBS cramping any more haha

Good call, my doctor is super nice and I’ll definitely chat with her if I don’t level out after my first period!
