"the paraguard is hands down, the best method of birth control! i had a lot of trial and error finding the right kind of birth control for me. i&#039;ve tried plls, the depo shot and the implanon. they always had some kind of bad side effect on me from weight gain to acne to migraines. i just wanted something all natural that would get the job done. i decided to give the paraguard a try even though i didn&#039;t like the fact of something being inserted in my uterus. it&#039;s done an amazing job. insertion and removal were quick and almost painless with some mild cramping. periods were light and maintainable. i couldnt &quot;feel&quot; it either. now i&#039;m ready to have my first baby but it&#039;s going right back in afterwards!"
