The "T" Shaped Contraceptive (IUD)

I have the same thing - and I love it!! The only complaint I have is that putting in tampons isn't as easy, it's kind of difficult to get it in the right angle. But I would definately recommend it.

No it is not painful to have it placed, nor is it uncomfortable for you. However, it may be uncomfortable for your husband. The "string" is not string you would find on a tampond. It's a wirey like string and it sticks straight out of the utarise (sp). Because it is sticking straight down it will poke him. You might wanta try something else.

Hope this helps,

I had the copper IUD that lasts 10 years. I had it inserted Feb of 2004 and just had it removed June of 2007. I would recommend it and I have. For me, it was pretty much painless to have it inserted. I did it before work one morning and was able to go about my work day as usual. The only thing I noticed was that some months I would bleed very heavily. Usually those months I didn't bleed as long. I think it's great because you never really have to think about it and you can't screw it up!! I tend to be rather forgetful at time. I hope this helps you out a bit.

Smiles,
