"hi there,

i also wanted to write a positive review. the first few days of having the copper iud was difficult. ibprofin became my best friend. i was bloated and swollen in my abdomen area for the first week but after that everything was fine. i did experience my first period recently and honestly it wasn&#039;t that bad. my period before the iud lasted about 5 days with medium flow. once i got the iud and on my next period, it was light the first two days with cramping 2 days before and about 3-4 days during my period. on the 3rd and 4th day of my period, it was pretty heavy heavy but after that went back to a normal flow. definitely advise to have super size tampons if your getting the copper iud. honestly i&#039;m fine with my period and was expecting it to be heavier, nice thing the heavy flow didn&#039;t last that long. in total my period was about 7 days. i think i&#039;ll get use to it. i&#039;m really happy with it and haven&#039;t experienced any other side effects since my period ended... no spotting, nothing :-)"
