Hello, I am 27F and from age 18 to 23 I had so many irregular or missed periods which I have seen alot of doctors and none of the medical solutions was working for me .. so I just let it go and my period started to be a regular 7 day period . After I immigrated at the age of 25 my periods even got shorter like 4/5 days and even loghter with less pain “ probably bc of the environment “ but after I had an copper IUD insertion my nightmare started . I knew it would be heavier period or even more painful.. “ I’ve been told this is for the first 6-12 months” and I waited . Now after 13 months there is not a single day that I don Not use daily pads I am seriously fed up and I don’t even know if the cause of this situation is my IUD or I am getting back the symptoms I used to have when I was 18 .. I have regular sex and when i didnt have IUD I was scared all the time I don’t know what to do honestly My doctor prescribed me a pill which lightens my periods but I dont wanna rely on pills.. What do you guys suggest ?
