birth control
"I had the paragard in for 14 days before finding out it gave me pelvic inflammatory disease. It has been one of the most painful experiences of my life. The insertion was not bad but the days following were so bad I almost ended up in the hospital. As soon as it was taken out I feel a million times better. If you have any nickel or metal allergies I would try something else too. I was told this wouldn't effect me with a nickel allergy but I honestly think that was the issue. I hate hormones but nothing was worth this amount of issues and risking my fertility completely."
