It looks like a trilobite fossil inside the uterus. That would probably be quite painful I would imagine

Even after this was taken off the market in the US it was still used in Africa when they knew the damage it caused

My IUD had to be surgically removed. I had to have a hysterectomy from it. It was 1975

My grandmother got the dalkon shield, and she ended up getting pregnant with twins, and the device ruptured the sac and caused her to miscarry and bleed out while giving a bath to her other 5 kids. She was traumatized from the experience. 😭

IUDs are also evil. I had a perforation, NHS did nothing for 10 weeks despite unbelievable pain. I had it taken out in Germany- where doctors don’t systematically gaslight women 🙃

The whole point of an IUD was to prevent pregnancy but it doesn’t need to be removed during pregnancy????

The design alone is barbaric. I can not imagine the pain on insertion. Or just having it in there at all. Add the infection 💀💔

“Safe” options. Idk, I’ve met two women who had copper IUDs and developed uterine cancer.
