Hi Amber,

Thank you for sharing your story. Sexual dysfunction is a common side effect of IUD (intrauterine devise). The Feminist Women's Health Center provides information on the side effects of IUD usage. Check out this website http://www.fwhc.org/birth-control/iudinfo.htm#side-effects.

You may want to try another form of contraception for this reason and another reason. IUD's are meant for people who are monogamous. The reason behind this is because you are more susceptible to infections which have far reaching effects. You should consult your physician and let him/her know about your sexual dysfunction as well as your lifestyle. He/She may chose another form for your safety.

I hope this helps.
