"love my paragard! insertion was a breeze for me. the first month was pretty rough as my body adjusted to it but after that its been smooth sailing. the only thing i am having trouble with is getting used to the heavy bleeding. my periods before the iud were pretty light so i&#039;m still having issues with leaking at night and remembering to change my cup more frequently during the day. i&#039;m planning on making a switch to cloth overnight pads so hopefully that will help. my cramps are not nearly as bad as they used to be, they&#039;ve actually disappeared for the most part, which was a pleasant surprise, especially as someone who tends to get pretty severe period cramps. best birth control i&#039;ve tried so far!"
