"so far the experience has been great , being 2 . with three kids i wanted something that was easy to do and with the pargard it&#039;s one incision and done. it didn&#039;t hurt as i was expecting either, just a few cramps an hour afterwards. i&#039;ve had it for about a month now. as i have read the period cramps are supposed to worsen and i&#039;m definitely not looking forward to that, so hopefully it won&#039;t be so bad. but so far everything is going good. and i&#039;d recommend it to anyone who can&#039;t remember to take a pill, doesn&#039;t like needles, or would prefer not to have a plastic piece in their arm."
