    I just posted about this in the PCOS section. I had some spotting on the day of and even some brownish spotting a few days after and then it went away I brushed it off becasue if you know anything about PCOS that is how it works! Anyway I have had severly sore boobs for the last 3 days I mean so sore to touch! And this morning I am experiencing lots of cramping ugh!!!! I know I wanted to have a normal life pre-PCOS but not having to deal with periods was nice, so I have yet to be able to join this thread full fledged becasue AF has not shown her face litterly yet! But soon I will have to join you all I think :(

    Does anyone have an IUD and a band?

    I was just wondering if after getting the band if having an IUD would change anything? Right now I only have my period for a day, usually every 3 months!!

    I didnt know if that would change or if the IUD would still keep my TOM in check?

    I just read on a pregnancy weight gain thread in the pregnancy forum that someone there had a failure of the iud and ended up preggers. I wouldn't think that being banded would have anything to do with the failure but I am curious.

    My TOM is a lot worse since being banded, even with control measures that usually made my period almost non-existant. It used to be a minuscule nuisance to being a huugggee problem now.
