Which coil would I like

Current bleeding pattern **IF YOU HAVE BLEEDING AFTER SEX, HEAVY IRREGULAR BLEEDING OR BLEEDING IN THE MIDDLE OF A CYCLE PLEASE CONTACT THE SURGERY TO DISCUSS WITH A CLINICIAN BEFORE COIL INSERTION
*
I have watched the video on IUDs or read online information

I understand I need to use an effective method of contraception and have no problems e.g. burst condom, missed pills, IUD overdue for change. I have not had unprotected sex (or used withdrawal) since my last period
*
I understand that it is not safe to insert an IUD if I might be pregnant
*
I will make sure that I have had breakfast on the day of the appointment. Paracetamol/ibuprofen is useful an hour before your appointment

I DO NOT have symptoms of sexually transmitted infection (STI) - vaginal discharge, rash, pain on passing urine or unusual bleeding. **IF YOU HAVE ANY OF THESE SYMPTOMS PLEASE CONTACT THE SURGERY TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO DISCUSS WITH A CLINICIAN**
*
I understand that no method is 100% effective and that the hormonal IUDs have a very small risk of failure (less than 1 in 100 chance of pregnancy)
*
I understand that there is a 1 in 1000 risk of perforation of the womb at the time of insertion
*
I understand that there is a 1 in 20 chance of the IUD falling out
*
I understand that there is a 1 in 100 risk of infection in the first few weeks
*
I understand that the IUD will not protect against sexually transmitted infections and condoms in additional are recommended for this if for example I have a new partner
*
I know that a hormonal IUD will make my periods much lighter but can cause erratic bleeding and spotting in the first few months
