"i&#039;ve had the paragard iud twice.. first time around i had it in for 5 months and had it removed due to pain after sex every time. i loved it though no hormones regular periods! so i ended up getting it placed again a year later and this time around is amazing! no pains after or during sex i honestly don&#039;t even feel it it&#039;s almost as if it&#039;s none existent! and my periods are heavier first 2 days and crampier again only the first 2 days. so far this has been my fav bcm of all ! really recommend"
