IUCD WAHALA
Hello Stella.
Hope you are good. I think this mail will fit in the doctors in house section. Please I need some help. I inserted IUCD earlier this year but I noticed recently that I can't feel the tread that shows that it's in place. I went to the family planning clinic to complain and they sent me for scan. The scan result shows that the IUCD is in the womb.
When I took the result to the clinic they said I have to come back when I am menstruating to remove it and insert another one or choose another family planning option. Now here is my concern, this IUCD is supposed to last for 10 years and 6 months after insertion , I am told I need to remove and insert again.
So how long will the second one last with the tread intact and please is there any other option aside IUCD and the implant. And has anybody experienced tread in IUCD cutting off before and how did you handle it.
Thank you.
From Worried mother of 3

Implanon has bad side effect. It made me depressed. I had to take it out after 5 months.

Are you out of your mind? You are coming here to call people stupid. May you not have a problem 10x greater than theirs. You think if they knew different they wouldn't act different?

ReplyDeleteWait until you have an issue that takes you to the hospital, and after doc prescription, you still want to hear from someone who has such experience and you come to doc in house session. Till then no word for you.

ReplyDeleteposters one n two, why dint u two look ur doctors in d eye n ask dem ds questions??? Anyways I hope u get d needed ansas here.
ReplyDeleteAnoda option is condom jor... it was in my parents. room dt I saw femalecondom andd how it looks lyk and they neva got pregnant, only for them to go nd do family planning and it failed. Thank God for saving my mum,she started bleeding clot of bloodd @7 mnths nd she had cs nd d baby died, up til now. God shd pls save all mothers.
ReplyDeleteDnot know why you need to be catetherized,but mostly is for patients after sugery that can't go toilet in their own,or who can't control their bladder,even with time they will be on free flow,that's just the catheter in the bladder without the bag.and with time they remove it.it has no effect to you getting pregnant or not but when your bag is filled up,and you don't empty in time and the urine goes back to the bladder,you can have infection. But am still surprise why a sonographer would be the one to tell you what you need.uhm naija.it is well.
ReplyDeleteAbeg make all d bzzy body wey dey dis blog relax,why is it called "doc in house section"
ReplyDeletewats d cussing for?? so stella d madam of dis blog is foolish to oblige der mails n post dem here abi?

Everytime people ask questions on this post, u people call dem stupid, insult or tell dem to ask Google or their doctors, indirectly saying that there is absolutely no need for this post then and should be scrapped. Pls it is wrong. If u cannot help by offering useful advice or sharing ur experience for one to learn, kindly skip dis post entirely.
ReplyDelete@IUCD WAHALA
ReplyDeleteone of the risk of IUCD is its getting missing in the womb.
During your family planing counselling the should have informed you that during/after every sexual intercourse you need ensure that thread is felt. it has to be in place, so it isnt pushed in. Yes it can stay for 10 years if care is taken to avoid such mishaps.
so i'll advice you read extensively on IUCD before you embark on a 2nd journey.
information is key. so what you don't understand you ask your caregiver.
Asides IUCD and implants there are injectables , male condoms, female condoms. you should be counselled at your center before you make a choice because all contraceptive options have indications and contraindications.
@CATHETERIZATION
i dont think your question is very clear.
To catheterize means to pass a tube in
The process of a HSG is done by catheterizing the cervix for passage of the die.
Do you mean the procedure failed then before take off?
Catheterization hinder chances of making a baby??? No
if there is an occlusion in there....then that is where there may be a problem.
Thanks jor. @iucd wahala. Somehow scared of this contraceptives.
Deleteposter 1 Condoms, poster 2 may God heal you.
ReplyDeleteOk,,,let me help u ask google
ReplyDeleteSee a doctor nangha
ReplyDeleteWell poster one,i guss why u were told to come for removal was 'cos the string has been displaced and that actually is not a problem.I cannt advise u to change ur method since it didnt pose any danger to ur health.You should go and change it.IUCDs can stay for 5yrs and above.Other family planning methods also have their own effect 'cos what's gud for me may not be good for you.
ReplyDeleteReally scared of that IUCD, why not use a condom? Best of luck...
ReplyDeletePoster 2, Probably you have cervical stenosis. Had a similar issue in like 3 places that I went for HSG but eventually I was able to do it successfully though quite painful in crest view radiological ltd in VI. You can give them a trail. Most times cervical stenosis doesn't cause infertility except in severe cases.
ReplyDeletePoster1 why not try using Spermicide
ReplyDeleteOrdinaily, Leech-wilkinson cannula is used for HSG ((there are other cannulae, though). It is inserted (more like screwed) through your external cervical os and the contrast medium for HSG is injected into your reproductive tract through it. However, there are situations where the radiologist may have difficulty visualizing or cannulating the cervix (due to partial/total cervical occlusion/stenosis). At such times, urethral catheter (same one used as conduit for urine) may be adapted. It's smaller and less painful. If there's no complete occlusion (evidenced by menstruation), paediatric-size foley's catheter can be manipulated through your cervical canal and retained. You'll then have your HSG through it the following morning and cather is removed immediately after. If menstrum still passes though your cervix, then no worries, you have a patent canal to a reasonable extent. Goodluck.
ReplyDeletePoster 2: I can see that you are trying to Conceive. You don't really need all these medical stuff.
ReplyDeletePls send me an email (it can be seen in my profile) cos there's a sanitary towel that can get rid of any irregularities internally. Its harmless and without side effects. I will send you the portfolio to read first. We never can tell what we have taken during the past that must be hindering our chances of conception.
I'm a living testimony cos it worked for me.
Poster 2 pls dont
