Ladies With Hormonal IUD. Did Your Flares Start/get Worse When You Got The IUD?

A myHSteam Member asked a question 💭
Troy, NY

I got my Kyleena IUD placed back in 2019. I got my first ever flare up a month later and have been dealing with them ever since. I’m starting to think that it is directly related to my hormonal BC. Has this happened for anyone else?

Now that I think of it I had gotten a mirena in like 2008 -2011 and it started about then and got way worse by 2015...
