IUDAlert

By Women for Women.
Raising awareness about IUD side effects so women can make informed healthcare choices.

[IUDAlert @IUDAlert]

Your voice is important.
Your personal experience with HBC is important.

If we do not raise our voices who will speak out on behalf of women injured or who died by prescribed contraceptives that are injected, inserted or implanted into our bodies?

Diana’s Story
I’m 24 years old and last year I decided to try a copper iud after having been on various hormonal contraceptives since the age of 14 (the pill, depo shot).
As soon as it went inside my body I was in an incredible amount of pain.

Elizabeth’s Story

Pressured by boyfriend into a copper IUD at 17, before I had a period. I experienced severe pain and started bleeding. After confirming it was correctly placed and not perforating, my health care providers told me this was normal.

Cameron's Story

Here’s my story with the Mirena:

I noticed within a couple weeks that I was getting more anxious. After almost two months, I experienced the first panic attack I was MISERABLE. I was living in NY at the time and had to move home.

KH’s Story – Vaginal Ring
Had the Nuvaring for a year, major symptoms, lingering effects since stopping. Unbearable back pain for a week (literally couldn’t walk or get out of bed) felt awful. extreme vaginal dryness and acute vaginal pain that has not gone after multiple years.

Is this ethical? If we do not object now... younger women will think this is a "normal" protocol.

Normalize offering sedation for IUD insertions!

This is Ays' Story

The first time when the dr tried to remove it she tugged hard the strings broke off.

The second attempt I had to go to gynaecologist and was given pain killers. When they tried to remove it was still painful and doctor failed.
