I've had my iud for a year now, and had heard alot about my friends who also have it that their periods have stopped completely or have lessened, so that's what I was expecting, but since having it my periods have increased in length? Right now I have it for 10 days or more, never heavy, just seems like I'm always on my period.... I've also found it's worsened my pms symptoms, the week before is pretty much worse than the week of :(. Other than that I love this form of birth control so I don't know if I'd have it removed because of this, I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.
