paraguard
i had the mirena in for a month and had it removed today. i was having major side effects and wanted it out. my doctor told me about paraguard and how i will have my period but they will be heavier and more cramping. does anyone have the paraguard and if so what are your thoughts on it?
i just got the paraguard on feb 18 and i been spotting since i had it.... then it stopped then it continued and then i went straight to having my period.... it seemed like i was hemorraging.... i dont know what to do... i dont know whether or not to remove it or keep it.....hoping maybe it will get better..... i wouldnt recommend it to anyone if the bleeding had to continue
I've had paragard for almost 3 years (December), and my periods are very heavy. They also last a lot longer, about 10-14 days. There are even months that I get my period twice. I also experience headaches on a monthly basis during my period or after. I'm thinking of having mine removed because I'm tired of bleeding out and getting headaches.
I had it for two years, and then took it out to have another baby. I liked it. I did have heavy periods, and became anemic because of the heavy blood loss. My doc told me to take iron supps daily, and Ibuprofen during my period to minimize the bleeding. I think I am going to try it again
