Childs birth symptoms and conditions

I had an IUD placed after my second childs birth. All other forms of birth control had caused problems (like the symptoms already listed). After insertion, I told all my friends about it, I had NO symptoms at all. I had no bleeding, no pain, felt as normal as can be, very strong sex drive. LOOONG story short, 2- yes 2 YEARS LATER I began having pain with intercourse. I felt for the "strings" to check for placement, my cervix was EXTREMELY tender and swollen. Shortly thereafter, a doctor appointment and ultrasound confirmed a severe infection (from insertion- 2 years prior) that had become so bad, my cervix was infected and the infection had abscessed the wall of my uterus. At 27 I had a hysterectomy with removal of my left ovary and cervix. Needless to say, I will only ever have 2 natural children when I thought I had "five years" to make that decision. I had no idea this could have happened and only tell my extremely painful story to let you realize that if you still have your uterus, you may want to remove that foreign object from it immediately!!!

i first went on Yasmin after the birth of my first child, who is nearly 3. before then i was on nordette. for the first year on Yasmin everything (i thought) was hunky dory but since reading previous posts i have come to realize that i have suffered the majority of symptoms listed by other users. however these symptoms did not appear til about a year after starting the drug. mainly i suffered from blurry vision, headaches, chest pain (which i attributed to my gallbladder which i had out not long after my child's birth.residual/phantom pain i thought silly me!) but i find that it is now that i am having the worst problems. i came off Yasmin in November last year in order to try for another child. i expected it to take a little while for my body to get back to normal but not this! ever since i have come off it my hormones have been so out of wack its not funny! i have broken out in acne worse than i ever had when i was a teenager, not only on my face but on my back as well. i have to wash my hair every night because it gets so greasy and i have put on a tonne of weight (which i first attributed to lack of exercise and poor food choices, but not to this extent!) i have also had a miscarriage in late January (when i had no trouble conceiving and carrying my first child) and am now pregnant again but think i might be about to loose this one too. i believe it is because i have some kind of hormonal imbalance due to coming off Yasmin - that it has thrown everything really out of wack. i plan on going to the doctor to get whatever test i can to try and work out what is wrong. when i first come off it my doctor said that it does affect people this way but i didn't think it would be this bad and i never had anything like this after coming off the nordette and i was on it for 10/11 years! was wondering if anybody else has had any problems after coming off it and trying to conceive?was thinking of using it again after my next child but think now i will just go back on to nordette.
