its a bit like having a smear when they insert it,the only side effect my daughter had was a bit of bleeding for a few hours after,they need to be replaced every 5 years i think.
I have never heard of the marine coil fitted. Is it a surgical implant and does it have to be replaced over time? Are there any possible side effects that you know of?
Thanks
Thanks for the response and advice. I know my wife has had some checks on her hormones levels but I am not sure if it was a complete profile. I have never heard of depot shots, I will forward your response to my wife and talk to her about this.
Thanks
my daughter was like it,the birth control pill didnt help her because she use to forget to take them alot which added to her problems,so she had the marine coil fitted,she seemed fine on that but since then she has had the implants in her arm fitted now,nomore periods and no more symptoms.hope this helps
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
The symptoms appear to have a hormonal component to it and if the complete hormone profile has been ok, and you have completed your family then the best thing to do would be go for depot shots after consulting a gynecologist. If you have not completed your family, please plan for a pregnancy and thereafter go for the depot method to control the symptoms.
I think you should discuss these possibilities with your doctor.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
