Experiences with 'the coil', please?


Fighting Weight

Recommended Posts

Deffo would recommend it.

Never felt it (lol), no experience with it smelling and the best part is it's non-hormonal. So there's not that nagging doubt it's f*ck*ng her moods up like the pill, implant etc. can do.

Only thing is it's a bit awkward getting it, we had to go three times. Twice because it wouldn't go in the first time and the third to check it's in the right place.

I thought it was supposed to be done by a nurse :| You do it yourself?

Anyway I think I'm deffo gonna give it a swerve

Yeah nurse, but the cervix (I think) can react badly if it's never been touched before. By badly it closes up, so you've wasted a trip. Think it's quite common it takes 2 attempts.

Lmao ^^

My friend had a coil, got 'lost' after few years. She now has damage to the womb and much reduced fertility.

My cousin had the implant, her arm reacted badly it was ineffective so she had to take the pill at the same time before waiting to have it removed.

Everyone has bad experiences but I feel these invasive preventions are not worth the risk, if im a bit grumpy and a bit more wobbly its not the end of the world.
