okay so i got my iud placed less than a month ago on april 20th. i had recently had a miscarriage at 5 week’s pregnant and my provider told me i should get some sort of birth control to prevent pregnancy while my body healed. to be honest losing my baby was absolutely traumatizing and i didn’t want to risk getting pregnant again and having to go through this all. but anyway she strongly suggested getting the mirena iud and now im here.

having this thing in my body has been HELL!!!
i had it placed on april 20th 2026, and as of posting this it is may 18th. less than a month later. i have gained 35 pounds. i have developed severely painful acne all over my entire body. i dont look or feel like the person i was before i had my iud placed. it’s so painful and im bleeding terribly all the time. i’ve ruined every pair of underwear i own.

because of all of this ive decided to take it out. i would really like to have this done by a professional but i had it done in virgina (where my college is) and now ive had to go home over summer break (florida). im an adult but becuase im currently living in my parents house i cant figure out a way to go to a doctor without them knowing about it and they would be absolutely livid if they knew. i also have absolutely no money to have a doctor remove it.

because of this ive done so much research and ive decided i want to take it out on my own but i wanted to ask what you guys think about my situation, if you have any ideas on how i could possibly have a doctor do it, if anyone knows about any programs of health care providers that don’t require insurance and aren’t terribly expensive. by that i mean it would pretty much have to be free for me to be able to afford it.

if no one has any good advice on that front, i would love tips on how to take it out on my own.

i’m so desperate for any kind of help. i dont even feel or look like myself anymore. please let me know if you have any advice!!!
