Tilted Uterus and IUD?

Question

Has anyone with a backward tilted uterus and and IUD had any complications? My doctor didn’t seem to think it was an issue during insertion but I’m very nervous it could migrate or perforate my uterus since it’s tilted backwards.

Answer

I have a retroverted uterus/cervix for most of my cycle. During some parts of my cycle it goes back to normal, it just depends because my uterus just likes to change position a lot like my cervix does. I have had my Kyleena since the end of October 2018. So far so good, but now I know when my uterus is shifting because I get cramps and very mild pinching when it happens. I’m not worried about it though because I have the slightly smaller size and it fits in my uterus better than the mirena would.
