Can taking zinc help to counter the negative symptoms i have been experiencing with a copper iud?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doubtful: You are much better off getting the iud out , you can get a Mirena (levonorgestrel) if u still want an iud and there are plenty of other methods makes no sense to try to take some else to try to treat a problem when the safer option is removal but ask your gyn.
