A member asked:
I'm getting an iud in a few days. i'm using it to lessen heavy periods and extreme cramps. can an iud stop periods and if so how long would that take?

Different option: IUD will not stop periods. There are birth control pills that can limit the frequency of periods. You should discuss it with your gynecologist. Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex. Get HPV vaccine
