Anyone have an IUD that’s helped stop your period completely? Kyleena’s definitely made my periods lighter but not having them at all would be great 🙌🏼🙌🏼

Talk to your dr about moving up to mirena. Kyleena is like the little sister to mirena and has less hormones. That small difference might help get rid of your period completely. Cooper IUDs tend to have the opposite effect. Also, check this board. Lots of IUD talk in here!

Been on Mirena 2 and a bit years and haven’t bled in 2 and a bit years. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

I have Kyleena and still get my period 🙄 but my sister who’s an OBGYN +some friends have said the Mirena does a better job at stopping it!

I've had Kyleena for almost a year and my periods are still so unpredictable. They got super light the first few months, but the last couple months, I've have my period for a week followed by breakthrough bleeding for a week. Ugh.

On my 2nd Mirena and love it. Insertion is painful but worth it for multiple years of no bleeding. 🙌

Mirena, haven’t bled or cramped in a decade. If you have other PMS or PMDD issues tho, be aware it can make you feel like you’re going nuts bc you have no physical signs to help you be like “Oh, I’m anxious for an actual reason”

I had mirena 6 years, no periods. Was great!! But for what it's worth, I'm going through freezing my eggs right now and my amh levels are super low. Doctors have said there's no evidence that mirena impacts that, but something to ask about going into getting a different iud.

I have Kyleena and I've only ever had 1 period since I got it inserted 6 months ago! But my periods have always been light, so my OB said that's a contributing factor as to whether or not it'll stop completely. I will say, if you're considering switching to Mirena JUST to get rid of your period then please reconsider lol. Everyone says the pain of removal is one of the worst experiences ever.

Also team Mirena. I’ve had mine for 5 years. No full-on periods since, and I’ve maybe spotted a handful of times.

I have had Mirena for 3 years and haven’t gotten my period once in that time. I’m done having kids (I have 3) so this is like bliss for me!

So about 5 years ago I met this guy at a networking event in my current city. We both discovered we had lived in NYC at the same time. He’s super cute, so kind of formed a crush on him. At the time we helped each other with job leads, etc. because we were both unemployed off and on. I invited him to industry events. Then our communication fell off around 2017 when we both found steady work. Also it seemed I was reaching out more than him, so I started reaching out less and stopped the invites.

I’m an older female CD/writer. Good at my job. Challenge is, I don’t have an art partner and can’t find one. At our agency, you’re paired up to CD. I don’t know if it’s my age or sex, but I’m hurt.

I feel like people don’t take me seriously at my job given that I have a junior title. Half my job consists of chasing after people and no one bothers to answer my emails or follow up. Usually the requests I have come from my boss or for big projects we’d be working on. Thankfully, my boss helps me out & emails the people I need when I tell her no one responds but they’ll answer her in 2 mins or less when she sends it. Though I’m happy she’s helping, it’s such a pain in the ass to wait around.
