OBGYN employees, pls come in

So today was the second annual appointment that I've asked about an IUD. Both times I've been steered back towards bcp. They just change the brand of pill and say call if I have any issues (it gives me migraines, already an issue). So my question is, do drs have some type of contract or agreement with these pharm companies to perscribe x amount of prescriptions? I don't mean to sound all conspiracy theory but I have to wonder why I'm not a good candidate for an IUD. I'm not planning on getting KU for at least a couple of years and I've had a long history of bcp migraines.

    That's infuriating. Did you straight up ask them why they were steering you away from an IUD? Especially if you've had problems with them in the past, that seems a bit idiotic - and if there's a reason you're a poor candidate, they should tell you why. 

    I'd be calling in the morning.

    No. Some might have a personal relationship with a drug rep but I would me more likely to guess your doc isn't comfortable doing IUDs for some reason. If you don't have any history of pelvic inflamitory ideas (PID) are in a monotonous relationship and are looking for lOng term birth control and dont have any uterine anomalies you are a good candidate. Some doc prefer you have had a vaginal delivery too but there are plenty that will put one in someone who has never been pregnant.
