I got an IUD a couple months ago and I am really happy I got it even though I had a really bad experience getting it placed. I know that the extreme cramping is suppose to decrease but I had never heard about no more periods after a year. Can you explain more?

My doctor told me that I couldn't get an IUD because I don't already have kids. Luckily, my mom works at a medical school, so I have pretty good access to doctors with opinions. Many practicing doctors advise against the IUD for young women because they don't want to be sued for malpractice in the case that they find they're infertile and blame the IUD (the IUD is generally not responsible…this was more a problem in the '70s and is virtually not an issue now).

My advice to ladies who are denied IUDs by their docs? Find a good gyno (not just your primary care physician and probably not the gyno at your campus wellness center). Don't be afraid to shop around. It's important to find a gynecologist who suits you, is open and honest, and understands your needs.
