I have an IUD. I'm 21, no kids, no problem. My Doc said I was an "ideal candidate". I think the "recomended for women who have had children:" thing is kind of outdated actually, especially concerning the Mirena IUD (what I have), it's obvious by the advertisements that this is being marketed to younger childfree women (compared to the Paragaurd ads which show an older women and a child).
It's worked well for me, no problems, no babies, lol. If the only thing holding you back is the fact that you haven't had kids, I urge you to still look into it, get a 2nd opinion. Good luck with whatever you choose

I've tried the Mirena, a few years ago, but I found that it reduced my libido to such an extent that it was almost non-existent. It was also virtually impossible to achieve an O, if you know what I mean. It was almost painful. It was like I have always imagined it would feel to be menopausal. Was this your experience, too?
