So I finally went to the OB/GYN the other day to talk to her about my IUD, which has been a lovely little piece of torture ever since I had it put in 8 months ago. I spot, every day. I thought I was going to go insane if I had to wear one more panty liner. As I am telling her that I want it removed she tells me that she’ll do it but “residents really don’t make any money so you clearly don’t want a baby yet” as a transition to discuss other forms of birth control.
Is this rude, judgmental and assumptive or am I over-reacting?
She gave me a prescription for a progesterone only pill (I have migraine with aura and have limited BC options) and proceeded to tell me to “go home and tell my husband I had a headache for a month” until the pill would become effective. Really? Is it 1950?
The whole thing really bothered me, and I am hoping that my irritation is justified and I am not just being overly sensitive...
