Family Planning. pt 1

After two children, i thought of relaxing with child birth. I went to the Hospital and i was directed to PPA (Specialized in Reproductive Health Services). They took me through the types of Family Planning. Within an hour, i was set up for the type of family Planning i choose.

I opted for IUC (intrauterine contraceptive) since i do not want any issues with my hormones.

Its been 3 months and i feel great. But ones in a while, i think of its state, whether the metallic string has not rusted or the device has shifted. A nurse ones told me, the fact that, you can not feel your womb is the same way you can not feel the IUC. Yea, initially, i could only feel the thread but with time it vanished.

Though, there was pain and uneasiness the first 3 days, i was much better after. For some reasons, i have not been there after everything. the nurses asked me to come for review every month.

Though, i have heard so many bad testimonies about IUC. Stories like, their IUC removed, it shifted, the thread was not found, it even affected their hormones and so on.  I still went in for it. 

My mother, after hearing about me going for that option, called me at dawn and begged that i go and remove it. oh! i told her, i was so fine and it will be fine. she told me scary stories of people who had had this option and did not go well with them.

But come to think of it, why don't people talk about how it has worked for them? i wonder!

I want to go and remove it. The thought of having foreign material in my body makes me have chills. Yea,yea,  i thought about before going in for it. what's your thought?
