70: Friday Free Talk: My IUD Horror Story

Author: HeHe Stewart October 26, 2018 Duration: 37:32
In the spirit of halloween, I’m sharing one of my very own medical horror stories. In July 2017, I made the decision to get the copper IUD. I had no idea the pain and trauma that would follow. I have used this story as fuel for my passion of helping women know their rights and advocate for themselves. Today’s episode may be triggering for some listeners. Through this horror show, I learned valuable lessons that I now use in my daily practice and I’m sharing my tips of advocating for yourself when it comes to your health care. Happy Friday, yal!    See:   Free Guide to Traveling with an Infant for the holiday season!    Episode 37: Bullying in the Birth World, Part 2: Advocating for Yourself   Episode 61: Let Me Introduce You to Your Vagina    Article: Taking Control of Your Birth
