IUD Side Effects & Complications: What’s Normal, What’s Not

Are IUDs safe? What are the real risks and side effects—and are the horror stories true? In this video, I break down everything you need to know about IUD risks so you can make an informed decision. As an OB-GYN, I’ve placed hundreds of IUDs. I’ll walk you through what to expect with both hormonal and non-hormonal IUDs, including: ✅ Pain and cramping during insertion ✅ Bleeding and spotting ✅ Infection and PID risk ✅ Expulsion, malposition, and rare complications ✅ Pregnancy and ectopic risk ✅ Hormonal side effects (or lack of them!) ✅ Myth-busting and what to ask your provider 📊 I include real stats and personal insight from my clinical experience so you can feel confident about your birth control options. 🔔 Subscribe for weekly women’s health content from a board-certified OB-GYN. 💬 Drop your questions or IUD experience in the comments—I’d love to hear from you!
