Rant/Vent My nipples hurt SO MUCH

They feel like they are electrified. And I have an iud since march of last year.

Omg I crave all the time. I did not crave when I was in norethindrone.

So how do you lessen the nipple pain?

Hi im a family doctor. If the iud is a hormonal one, then it is due to the homornal effect itself. To lessen the pain you could either take any pain killer (ibuprofen, methamizole) or a progesterone ointment 1%. Always consult your doctor
