"i have not had it very long, but i am in love with it so far. the iud&#039;s scare me, and i can not remember to take pills. the whole process was quick and little pain involved. i have had no period, and the only side effect i noticed was some headaches that i do not usually get. those could be from not drinking enough water though. i have tried all sorts of pills, which all had multiple side effects within 24 hours. this has none so far. super happy i got it! i gave it a 9 because i have not had much experience with it yet. great for people who do not want to worry about taking a pill or going in for more shots and patches."
