I am making a decision that is causing me anguish. I am using an IUD for medical purposes and find that my conscience can no longer abide. I read up on the effects of this IUD and found it disparaging. Aside from the fact that it is an abortificient, it may have links to causing breast cancer.

I have used the IUD previously and it worked well. I suffer from hemorrages and frequent, inconsistent periods; it makes it very difficult to have a normal life. I chose to implant this IUD a second time because of the inconsistent, frequent periods that I was experiencing again and decided to give it another try. This time it was different; causing me just as many problems. I made an appointment tomorrow to remove it and this is where I need your prayers. Pray that somehow the LORD will relieve me of this pain, and that I can have a normal cycle without medical intervention; the only options they give me is either this IUD or a hysterectomy.

My husband does not agree with my decision because of the obvious implications and he is worried about my health. I am finding it difficult to find peace, but I feel it necessary to do this. However I cannot do it alone. Please, pray for my healing. I know there are so many out there that have more serious maladies and need your prayers, but after 25 years of this, it is taking its toll; I submit myself to God and His saints to help me.

God Bless
 
Your situation definitely sounds serious to me. Praying for your healing, that you will be healed like the woman who touched the hem of Jesus’ robe …

Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
 
sympathizing and empathizing, through personal experience, and praying intensely for you, and hope you find time to review the NFP threads on the family forum for links to pro-life doctors esp John Paul II institude. Dr. Anthony Dardano and others who do suggest other options and 3rd opinions.
 
I’m in exactly the same situation and have chosen to keep the IUD (since the Church does permit this) but try to lose even more weight in the meantime as this is the only possible way to make it possible to get rid of it.

It would be very helpful to me if you could let me know how it works for you without it- the IUD causes me a lot of nausea and I often don’t feel well with it, but nothing compared to the impairment that I had without it- I can’t risk that kind of helplessness again with two young children who depend on me.
 
Lord, please come to humble maid’s assistance and have mercy on her. Heal her in accordance with your holy and perfect will, and grant her courage, strength, the deepest faith and holy abandonment to your will. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer.
