Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has had the same experience as myself with the copper coil. I've had it in for the last 6 years, unfortunately I'm unable to use hormonal contraception so this was my only option at the time other than condoms but it's making me miserable. I recently had a vaginal ultrasound, a colposcopy and a biopsy to determine why I was bleeding so much. I have bled every single day since October 6th 2019. My periods would last anything from 12-15 days, sometimes 2 periods per month before the every single day issue started. The biopsy found that I had cervical ectropion which was treated and I was told that this was the cause of the bleeding and that 4-6 weeks after treatment, the bleeding would stop. It hasn't. My only feeling now is that my coil is causing the bleeding. I experience abnormal discharge, pelvic pain which feels like someone is stabbing me. I've had all tests etc done, bloods done.. everything came back as normal. Even though this is the only contraception I can use, I feel like I need it taken out. Has anyone ever experienced this level of bleeding before with the copper coil? I'm currently keeled over in pain on the floor because the pain is just to much
Thank you.
