Oh yeah, is that a copper one? I haven't known too many who have those.
for me, it pretty much halted my periods all together. and even if an egg does get fertilized, the large plastic thing in the uterus keeps it from implanting (or that's what they told me anyway). the period-halting is normal though, and should resume once I take it out (uh, we'll see in 2010 though, ha).
did you check out the lj community iud-divas? it was helpful for me to hear others' experiences and get an idea of what to expect.
