birth control
"I've had it for 8 months. I expected the longer heavier periods (7-8 days) and cramping but it is just unbearable at this point. I'm having it removed tomorrow. I love the idea of a nonhormonal birth control but my body clearly does not. Today the cramps were so bad that I doubled over in pain and was brought to tears. I just had an ultrasound last month and the Dr said it looked like everything was fine and it was in the right place. There was a small indication that it could be slightly embedded on one side but nothing to cause concern or to keep it from working. I also experienced pain during sex which I have never experienced before. The pain felt like my partner was punching my cervix. I really wanted paragard to work for me. :("
