Hormonal/libido issues with Paragard
Hi everyone! I have had my Paragard IUD inserted for about six months or so now and like many, I have a love/hate relationship with it. My periods have been heavier and more painful, but this is much preferable to me than putting hormones into my body and not to mention having a child at this point in my life.
However much I do enjoy no longer being an emotional slave to estrogen, the lack of hormones does seem to be negatively affecting my body as well. I have noticed a few hairs on my chin that appear occasionally (!!!) something I have never experienced. I also have a much lower sex drive but this could also be associated with stress. Has anyone else encountered these issues with Paragard? If so, any advice on how to remedy it? Help, before my poor blue-balled bf has some competition for who has the best beard in the relationship!
