Regret

Christina • 21 years old, RN 💉, In love with my better half ❤️

Anyone regret getting their IUD/ have a bad experience with it? I've had mine for a month and I'm considering getting it taken out... I know the first 3 months or so are an adjustment period but I don't know if I can keep dealing with this. I was in so much pain the first week I got my kyleena. The cramps lessened but I have had heavy bleeding everyday for a month (I hadn't had a period in 8 months due to PCOS). My obgyn had me come in for a follow up and said that the bleeding is definitely more than usual but I could just be having an actual period, which I don't mind. I'm not bothered by the blood. It's a little inconvenient but I can deal with it. The thing I can't deal with is the cramps. I have mild cramps on and off most of the time and it's not bad. But every now and then I get cramps sooooo bad that I'm curled up crying in my bed. Nothing makes it go away. It's awful. I don't know what to do.
