birth control
"I LOVE my IUD. I was so so scared before I got it after reading reviews about insertion pain, bleeding, cramping, etc...  I decided to give it a try and told myself that if it was horrible, I would just get it removed after my first month. Well... I still have mine in! It is the best thing I have ever done. My cramping is a bit different--more piercing--but not unmanageable. I do not take birth control--but, instead, use cramp bark to help relieve the pain. I also take Vitamin E to reduce the bleeding. However, even without these supplements, my period is so manageable. The insertion itself was not even bad for me. I felt a bit of pain--then it was over and I carried on with my day! I love it and would recommend it to anyone!!"
