Possible perforated uterus

Has this happened to anyone else? I'm in such pain from the insertion of the IUD still and my OB thinks that his partner may have perforated my uterus when she dilated me. I have to go in tomorrow to see what's going on. :(

  • No, but I did have severe pain and cramping after mine was inserted for several days. It was the worst cramping or pain down there that I ever experienced and I have a really high threshold for pain. I hope everything is ok.

  • It was listed to me as a very rare side effect and I was told it would have massive bleeding. 

    Hope she is wrong and you feel better soon

    I have a high threshold for pain too and this is worse than contractions! Not constantly, but it sucks when it strikes. You give me hope though. Maybe it just sucks for awhile.

  • I wanted to add that in the case I was talking about it would be if the iud did it. If the doc did it it sounds like it could be more of an annoyance.
  • I was really shocked at how much pain I was in. I didn't take anything after my c-section and couldn't believe I was in agony for a few days after the insertion. There were times it stopped me in my tracks. I'm hoping it's just the same thing for you. 

    Did you skip spin this morning?

    I did skip spin, there was no way! 

    I guess I'll have an u/s tomorrow if I'm still in pain. Ugh!

    Thank you!

    It's a long story, but my OB had no appts until next month, so I made the appt with his partner. She went to dilate me and said that my cervix was small and my uterus was very big.... Which later translated to maybe she perforated my uterus???... Hoping if this is the case it heals on its own. It sucks being a woman!! And I'm wishing I had waited for my OB for the appt!!!

  • This is why i vote for snip snip for the man!! Its enough we have to deal with periods each month, then possibly labor and birth....that's the least they can do!!

    I hope you feel better soon!
