"We don't do IUD's unless you've been pregnant or had a chlid...I'll leave your name with the clinician...the recommendations say..."
I'm so tired of hearing these types of things. Oh what a curse to be born a woman and never want to bear yourself. I called Planned Parenthood in my area today. They'll see about making an exception but basically they don't do them on women who have never been pregnant or had a child. When I asked her if she had a recommendation of another birth control method I could use that was non-hormonal...well, let's just say she came up with lots of suggestions that didn't meet that standard. I hate this....
