"i have had paragard for 3 weeks. insertion was not that bad people, come on now. the doctor made me very comfortable and she had the cutest most open face ever. so, after procedure - first two days spotting, then period, which lasted quite long (but i haven&#039;t had a period in about 6 years, so ja). due for my 6 week update in a few weeks, but i love my paragard. my husband and i have no problems with anything.....and people, seriously, the longer periods are something that can be dealt with way better than an unwanted pregnancy. 
ok, so update after 6 week checkup. oh yeah!! everything is 100%, iud still perfectly in place. no worries about anything. just get over the first 4-6 weeks, then you will ok"
