birth control
"I read a lot of reviews before getting paragard and they almost made me not get it because some sound so awful. But I have honestly had a great experience and so I wanted to share that. When I first got it in I was not on my period so the insertion process was painful. I had cramps and heavy bleeding for about 3 days after and then the cramps went away and the bleeding lightened. The bleeding was over with in about 5 days after insertion. I honestly didn't have any spotting between then and my first period post-insertion. My first period after the bleeding was heavier than before I had it, but nothing super excessive and the heavy bleeding was only for 2-3 days. My period ended in 6 days. Next period was the same. No spotting in between."
