Intrauterine Devices and BDSM - 5/3/2007 2:28:34 PM

I have finally decided to be responsible and put myself back on some form of birth control. I know myself well enough to know that I can not remember to take a pill everyday, much less at the same time everyday. I started looking into IUDs and noting the pros and cons of them. On one hand, its an effective form of birth control that ive read can last up to 12 years (copper IUDs). On the other hand, there are obviously possible side effects. One is the device actually slipping out. I would assume that rough play wouldnt help things. Also, the strings that are attached to the IUDs would probably get in the way although i did read that a doctor can cut them off for you. One last thought, will this make any difference when it comes to electricity play? I would assume that it wouldnt.

Any thoughts or experiences?

I believe there are IUD's that are made of a special kind of plastic. That wouldn't interfere with electricity. I'm not sure about the copper ones, though.

Check your length BTW

Without going into details, I once had a *cough* friend with a metal IUD, I not sure whether it was supposed to protude from the womb into the vagina, but when she was really aroused, the tail of the IUD would protrude slightly from the cervix.

Of course when aroused, her vagina would contract, so much my penis would hit the cervix and get a metal paperclip poking its head for it's troubles.

I didn't find that very erotic

No blood or tear in the condom

Out comes the rubber gloves, lube and torch from my Fisher-Price "my first Gyno kit"

*Squint*
*Poke*
*Prod*
*glove gets torn*

Betcha it was the first time that the Dom gave the safe word to end a scene

In my GYN's office there's these little clear circles.
They look like a fat rubber band.
They are some kind of birth control where they slip it over your cervix.
I'm not sure how often it has to be replaced or what the name of it is as I have had a hysterectomy and had no need to inquire.
I just know when I saw them I thought if I needed birth control I'd probably like something that simple.
Good luck with your choices.

I have this IUD

http://www.mirena-us.com/index.html?c=S1&WT.srch=1

It is plastic, it has a hormonal component, it lasts for 5 years.

It was rather painful to get inserted. I was told there would be some "discomfort", I went slightly into shock from the pain, but you know, it was over fairly quickly.

I can feel the string, which is soft, and I like this because I can check the placement. I have had two partners since it was inserted, neither could feel it. I have cramps intermittantly, but there are health bennies from it too.

My Daddy has had a vasectomy, so he cannot get me pregnant anyways, but I have kept it. I keep it because it makes my periods extremely light, and I skip them sometimes. Before the IUD I was having two periods a month sometimes, and harsher periods than normal. Now I do not have that problem.... so a few cramps here and there are nothing like having bad cramps twice a month.

I love my IUD, and I will probably get another when this one's time is up. It just is easier for me not to deal with hard periods. I have had it fir going on three years.

Another draw back, if you contract an STD, it can quickly lead to a profound infection that can be life threatening, so it is not for people who are not mono.... just sayin.

Only thing I can tell you about play, I probably would skip a hard fisting or something like that, and I would ask a kink friendly doctor about what maybe risky...

If you don't want to risk and IUD [though I'm pretty sure that some of them wouldn't be affected] you can use the patch. It's got the same sucess rate as the pill and most IUD [99%] but it is changed weekly.

that "fat rubber band" is probably the NuvaRing. I have it and I love it.

Put it in, leave it in for three weeks. Take it out for a week and then start a new one. My doctor actually recommended it when I went in asking about the patch several years ago. When all the bad reports about the patch came out last year, I was glad he talked me out of it.

I had the Mirena IUD for awhile. I had the one with the hormones on it. It wasn't overly painful to have it inserted. My problem with it was that it affected my depression. It really made me emotional and I cried a lot. I ended up having it removed and as soon as the hormones were out of my system, I was better. Having it removed was felt like a quicl pinch.

You could consider the depo provera shot. You get that every so many months. Definitely less to remember than the pill.

The Depo Shot is repeated every 3 months. It is still a hormonal birth control and it can hurt the muscle they inject it in for about a day or so. And you can stop having your period or have a very short period or spotting all through the month.

I just had this one put in place yesterday at my doctor visit. I started using the depo shot right after my last child was born. Finally stopped using it a little over a year ago, so 16 years of depo.

I would not suggest to anyone to use the depo, in fact, i'd plead for them to stay away from it.

When I got off the depo, and this is the reason I started seeing another doc....my period came back with a vengence! I was having a period every 2 weeks, for 3 weeks at a time. Cramps were virtually unbarable and clots big enough to fill a messuring cup.

When my gf found out about this in February, she called a doc and they put me in the hospital. He put me on some birth control pills for the next two month for hormone treatment and to regulate me, yesterday..he put in the mirena.

Yes, it did hurt a bit going in, and I had minor cramping the rest of the day. But at least I am getting back to normal. I actually feel prety good today.

He also told me with this thing, chances are...my period will end again...which is fine by me....but it won't have the weight gain that the depo shot caused.

So I would ask ya hun, thinking of my own experience...DON'T DO THE DEPO! Think Marena.

I too would recommend staying away from Depo Provera.. Granted this is only my personal experience, but if you ever plan on having children, it does a number on your system. I got the shots after the birth of my first child, went off of them 2 years later, and 4 years after that (after being put on the first stages of fertility medication {clomid}) I was able to conceive my second child. The literature that I read stated that 97% of women regain fertility within 12 to 18 months after stopping the shot. It's just that there are a pesky 3% that are left anovulatory (unable to ovulate without the assistance of medical intervention). Additionally, the shot causes weight gain, and can kick off mood swings. As I said.. this is my experience with it, your milage may vary.

As an aside, I also use the mirena IUD and have had absolutely no complaints from myself or partners.

I've been known on occasion to have some seriously rough play (but have not yet experienced any electro type play) with no side effects from the IUD.

Hope my info helped

Depo made me bleed for over three months, it made me a basket case emotionally, and I would seriously do a search on the side effects of whatever a person chooses. There is no one size fits all alternative.
