because with her not being married they think she or her partner might have more partners (like married people dont cheat lol) But when a woman has multiple partners or her partner has multiple partners is makes her more likely to get an infection (not the IUD) and with an IUD in place its alot harder to treat the infection which if an infection is left untreated she may be left sterile so basically instead of the DR sitting down and explaining this to your Daughter he took the easy way out. Change Dr asap.

I don't get it. I think an IUD is not good if a woman has multiple partners. If she's married then she would more likely be with only her husband. I had one for 20 years. I loved it. Tell her to go to another doctor. And tell him she's married. I found the IUD, to be the best form of birth control. The reason is because it does not change the regular function of your body.

Mirena is a big improvement on the older copper coils. In general it has much less in the way of side effects. Bleeding, after some initial trickeling tends to br reduced and so do other mestral problems. Weight gain is rare with Mirena as only a few microgrames of progesterone are released each day. Pregnancies have been recorded, nothing is perfect, The rate of ectopic pregnancy in users of Mirena is 0.06 per 100 woman-years. This rate is lower than the rate of 0.3-0.5 per 100 woman-years estimated for women not using any contraception. The corresponding figure for the copper IUD is 0.12 per 100 woman years. Studies on contraceptive efficacy have suggested a pregnancy rate (Pearl Index) of less than 1 per 100 woman-years. This coil seems to be suiting you, so why read the horror stories?

I am single, but have been in a relationship with the father of my children for 5 years. My Dr. actually advised me to get on Mirena. He warned me that women with IUDs do have a slightly higher of being susceptible to other PIDs, so they don't advise women with multiple partners to use it. Since he knew that I was in a monogamous relationship with my partner, he was more than happy to get me started with it.

The doctor problaby told her that. Because there are many risk with IUD. If the female has many partners she can get an infection. Infections can even cause death.

That doc was just making a political statement. I'd actually think he'd be more interested in getting you on semi-permanent bc because you AREN'T married. Just go to a different doctor.

maybe the dr. is worried that she is with more than one person. all i know is that my dr. said you have to have at least one child and don't plan on having anymore. how old is she? if she is younger that's probally why. you could go to another dr. and try. i love mine was a pain in the butt at first but now it's great! keep trying!
