For at least another decade :)
I love my kids, but I don't want any more. Ever. But the doctors won't tie my tubes because I'm still "young" and might change my mind. So I had to settle for an IUD. I went ahead with the 10-year non-hormonal one, Paragard. There were a few reasons, but the final deciding factor was that Paragard has had less complications than Mirena.
This is all supposed to take place in an office visit, and it's only supposed to take a few minutes, right? Wrong. You forget that it's ME that we're talking about here. I knew within seconds into the procedure that something wasn't right. And was that an understatement! My uterus has retroverted backwards at a 90 degree angle toward my spine... once again. They had to use an ultrasound to navigate the IUD. But once they brought the ultrasound machine, it was a breeze! I would recommend it to anybody with a uterus that isn't difficult. :) It doesn't even compare to the misery and the uncomfortable-ness (is that a word?) of being pregnant.
TEN YEARS! NO BABIES! SHIBBEEEE!!!!
Love,
