I had the symptoms for a week of a UTI after having my IUD for four months, I have no children. I had noticed a lack in my sex drive, but thought I could just get through that. Then I started with this awful burning feeling, not being able to urinate, and lower back pain. Oh of course my new relationship and I'm getting a UTI. Well the test came back negative. Well what else could be wrong because I know I'm not crazy and I should listen to my body. So I got on this site and read some of the responses by other women to the IUD. I read them, and went to my Dr. telling her that I need this out, tomorrow. She told me my symptoms weren't related to the IUD, and I probably had bladder issues, and how I also wouldn't regain my sex drive. I didn't think these reactions and symptoms would just start after four months I thought I was totally in the clear. I know the "everyone is different" phrase is applicable to every medication but I know that the words that I read on this page made me realize I had too much in common with other peoples feelings about my symptoms for it to be anything other than the IUD. I got it removed this morning, and already feel a weight lifted.
