I am getting a copper IUD put in this week and I was just wondering how safe they are and what your experiences have been with them, good and bad! Thanks!

Have you already had at least one pregnancy? Otherwise, an IUD isn't recommended.
I had one for a few years. The first one came out and had to be reinserted!!
I had much heavier periods when I had an IUD, which was the down side. Otherwise, after the second one was inserted, I didn't have any other problems. I found it was pretty much worry free. And you don't ever have to worry about remembering it.
These links give quite a bit of information. I hope this is helpful.

Hello
I personally would not recommend a Copper IUD.
My experience was not a pleasant one.
First of all I had heaver monthly, painful Cramps
And then my IUD was lost in my uterus walls and I. Ended up have a Scraping.
However as far as pregnancy goes it work, but oh so much discomfort.
Talk to your Doctor and see what other option may be safer and more comfortable.
This note is not to discourage you, but I think there is a much better contraception.
Sincerely A New Day

My daughter had one put in when she was first married, because she didn't tolerate the pill well. After she first had it put in, she bled a lot. But soon, it was fine, and she really liked it for several years. Then she started to bleed heavy again (after having it for about 4 years) and she had to have it removed. But it was easy to get it removed. She's back on the pill again.

After I had a baby, I had one for years and I loved it. No probs at all! You need to check that it is in place by inserting a finger in your vagina after your period every month. The biggest danger is that you would expell it and get pregnant or it could go into your uterus and need to be removed...If you have had a kid you are more likely to be able to retain it.
