Does anyone have tips for relieving medical anxiety surrounding women’s health?? Especially after getting an IUD? I’m constantly thinking there is something wrong over minor things.

Yeppers! What kinds of things are you worried about? Like hormone issues or pain or something?

Mostly when I have abnormal pain. Sorry for the tmi. Specifically right now I felt a sharp pain trying to have intercourse recently, and it’s giving me anxiety that my IUD is out of place. (Im just getting over an infection down there probably due to hormonal changes.) I just spiral on google like a lunatic when it’s probably fine.

Sharp pain: he probably hit your cervix and that hit the iud, but as long as there is no lasting pain you should be fine!

And totally not tmi at all, it’s just health

It was kind of shallow though which is why I’m a bit concerned. Thank you though that’s reassuring that it won’t just fall out lol.

Maybe you weren’t fully turned on so your cervix didn’t have time to raise fully? Or if it was fingers, maybe they just scratched or pinched something accidentally

It felt like a different kind of a pain than lack of lubrication? Like very sharp. Could it possible be from just getting over an infection? Thank you for helping.
