Kyleena
8/24/2020 | | 26moderated by Henry
Levonorgestrel (19,5MG) for Contraception / birth control
Positives:
1- Small, so placement didn't hurt, and no contact/pain during sex
2-Effectiveness
3- Price. IUDs are usually free with most healthcare
Negatives:
1- Everyone's different, but it felt like I was PMSing 24-7. I was crazy bloated, had insane cravings (never liked sugar, but would regularly eat excessive sweets while I had it)
2- Weight gain. I thought females were full of it when they said their bc made them gain weight. Nope. I porked up. Some of that can be attributed to the cravings/sugar, but not nearly enough to justify the weight gain.
3- Skin. It destroyed it. I'm blessed to naturally have flawless skin. With Kyleena I consistently had crazy breakouts on my chest, shoulders, back, even my thighs. Also, never had a cyst in my life. I got 2 infected cysts on my thigh while I had this IUD. I haven't had one since I got rid of it
