got her out today. DEC 25’- JUNE 26’ i had a cyst last month on my last ovary and an infection idk what happened but ever since then i have had pain and pressure from this IUD.

meant cyst on left ovary in title****

had a CT scan and they said it had shifted to the left but it was still in a good place. idk how that makes sense lol but i decided to advocate for myself and decided that i did not want to wait for any other tests with my cyst to see if that’s the issue.

it genuinely felt like it was my IUD giving me pain and it in fact was.
i’m so sad because i don’t wanna be on hormonal birth control but this try with the IUD didn’t work out for me : (
i was an optimistic person about the IUD but i think that shit is just going to happen sometimes when u have a foreign object inside you you know.

i’m relieved now. maybe ill try it out again but idk!
sometimes i hate being a woman with this birth control nonsense ugh

can anyone with PID share their experience? don’t know if i have it but i have an annual tomorrow i wanted a new IUD but apparently cant get one if i have PID im so upset.

i went a month ago to the dr for pelvic pain on my left side.
i had a cyst on my left ovary and turned out i had an infection as well internally. they asked abt any prior infections i said not that i know of. they gave me antibiotics. i’m so conflicted abt this whole thing. i got my iud in december i also had an abortion last june idk if it could’ve been from either of those things but if it effects fertility im so sad about it. when i got my iud they tested for diseases and those were negative.
besides the pain last month i haven’t had any more pain. i hope this means im ok.
but i just wanted to see if anyone wanted to share their experience or give me comfort lol
i guess i will see tm if i have PID confirmed.

had a CT scan Dr told me my iud is shifted left but it’s still in a good place??

i kinda just trusted her word at the time because i’m scared to get another one inserted but it’s become obvious to me that’s it isn’t in a good place after all because i feel discomfort during sex and my partner told me he can feel it.
have an appointment coming up im gonna ask if they can remove and give me a new one.
just a little vent. im also scared since its shifted if it might be imbedded in my wall ugh

has anyone had one removed and put in same appointment?
any similar experience anyone wants to share?

did anyone get iodine/sanitized at their vaginal entrance when getting inserted?

i heard someone say they got iodine out on their vulva before insertion. did anyone else get this? i was not. they just opened me up and put iodine on my cervix and then inserted IUD. just curious.

hi looking for ovarian cyst support. anyone want to share their experiences. what helped them feel better/recover faster? dr thinks i have PID but not confirmed. STI tests were negative. have copper IUD.

on antibiotics and pain meds but even then i feel discomfort still. i’m going through it honestly because i feel not the best and i can’t even consume many things without feeling terrible. low energy so i drank an alani. didn’t feel good since drinking that so haven’t done anything once again. my place is a mess its so just so upsetting. i wanna be normal again already! im a week away from my period so im already feeling pms and not looking forward to when i do get my period : (

if anyone wants to share any websites with information on ovarian cysts or anywhere i can chat with others going through the same thing lmk. i feel so alone in this. thanks!

looking for support. ER doctor speculates i could have PID. have an ovarian cyst but ive had the same partner for 2 years. iud insertion december 2025. abortion last july. so confused. so discouraged. no insurance ☹️☹️😭😭

just curious if anyone else has had PID. it’s not confirmed only speculated but i’m just very depressed now. this whole thing sucks so much. never had burning when peeing, fever or chills, vomiting though. probably won’t have a appointment with a doctor til june 24th so i’m left with my thoughts about this and worry as i have to go back to work for income soon.

edit because it won’t let me reply to a comment for some reason but ive not had any weird vagina symptoms like burning in my vulva. only pressure and left side abdominal pain.

any advice i should know when having an ovarian cyst?

i’m 23F never had one to my knowledge. but i do now (wasn’t told the size but was enough pain to send me to urgent care and ER.) it sucks a lot. what sucked even more was the ER doctor saying “women get these, preg women work”
when i asked about what i could do regarding work accommodations. i have a physical job at amazon so i would have liked to have someone backing me up medically when it came to moving too much.
i’m afraid of any ruptures or torsions : (
sorry for the vent but it was just very disheartening to hear that and i wanna get get better asap.
i am on naproxen and doxycycline hyclate at the moment but what other life style changes helped you when you had a cyst?

i just got told i have an ovarian cyst. i’m curious if all us girlies with worsening PMS symptoms since copper insertion all just have cyst’s in reality.

i (23F) got diagnosed with PMDD in my early teens (17) haven’t rlly had bad PMS since then until after i got my IUD. i rlly enjoyed it the first few months (insertion in december) my periods weren’t bad or upset heavy then bam this last period i had a rlly heavy and painful period. then followed pain and pressure right after my periods ended and turns out i have an ovarian cyst. i wonder how long ive had it it’s so weird! wish i knew.
if you’ve had one with copper IUD what’s your experience? i’m very curious

hello girlies, i just got told i have an ovarian cyst. i was prescribed neproxen. its after hours for pharmacy & i just noticed no where on the bottle does it say how many hours in between doses to take my second one. what did your doctors say?

bottle says “take tablet by mouth twice daily for 15 days”
just wanna be precautious. first time i took it today was 12:40pm

[routine help] need suggestions/ thoughts on using ordinary skin care for oily & textured skin.

i’m trying to figure out the best skin care for myself. i’m very prone to bad and sometimes hard black heads on my nose and even on my face. i will even get pimples on the sides of my nose. pores filled with pus. it’s so frustrating.. i need help but idk where to start first. i thought with using this brand and luckily got recommended this mini set.

wanted to see people’s thoughts and their skin type and reaction. examples of my pores and skin texture on the next slides. i’ve always had pretty bad acne. could be worse but i produce a lot of oil and i think that’s my issue. and bad genetics probably

hey guys how do u usually feel after your done with your period? do u get a inflamed/soreness kind of feeling in your uterus area? i’m struggling with that right now

had mine since end of december. periods have been fine up until this past one. i’m finally not bleeding/spotting after about 10 days. i’m used to it lasting a week now of bleeding/spotting but this time around it was more stubborn and i bled more than usual. have had cramping even after i’ve been done bleeding w just spotting.
i do amazon for a form of income and the heavy lifting was not mixing well with me being post period. when using my core my abdomen feels very weird and was wondering if anyone else experienced this. i’ve had this feeling before post period but not the way it is now.
feeling very alone w this so pls share anything u have experienced similar tysm!
