Im worrying myself. I’m due to have a copper iud fitted later today and I’m scared. I have heard horror stories about it and it’s making me really nervous and scared. I know more people have it (my mom, sister and a friend have had it) and have no problems rather than have any problems (2 friends have tried and not kept it in) but I’m still scared as I don’t have high pain threshold and just finished a really painful period. I’m trying this after being on pill for 9 years and I’m trying this to stop my horrid mood swings, so trying hormone free iud. My bf is supportive but I’m still scared. Is it really bad during and after fitting? Please I’m panicking so much.
