"i&#039;m a bit disappointed to read dozens of  reviews from women who just had the copper iud inserted that very day of two days before writing said review. i skipped through all of those because frankly you cannot review a product like an iud if it&#039;s literally been inside of you less than 24 hours. 



i&#039;ve had my copper iud almost 4 years now and i want to mention that my periods are b-r-u-t-a-l. typically my periods last 10-12 days (if you include that barely-there blood the last few days). not only are my periods long, but are bloodier than i ever could have imagined. to give you an idea, i&#039;ll bleed through a super-plus sized tampon in 2-3 hours.  however, prevents pregnancy to a t and my boyfriend can&#039;t feel it."
