I don't have the iud with hormones. My pap test is normal and the doctor says the iud string is right where it's supposed to be. I had it for 2 years with out a problem. Now all of a sudden I have cramping and spotting between periods.
I've heard that the MAIN REASON one iud has hormones is to curb bleeding that otherwise happens with iuds. I have a clean bill of health. Is this abnormal spotting one of the side affects? Even after 2 years of everything being normal?

OMG, that is exactly what is happening to me, will be three years in December, and about 3 months ago I started having the same problem.
I checked out fine too, and she seems to think its uterine fibroids and says it should clear up with a few months of BC pills. Which is what Im trying right now. Only been one week so far tho, and Im still spotting and cramping. I have the copper too as I dont like the whole hormone thing. Would love to compare notes tho if you find out anything. Dont really get the chance to compare notes with anyone.

IUD's are famous for causing heavy bleeding.
