"i unfortunately wouldn&#039;t recommend this based on my experience. i got it in and had my period for about 2 months straight. then 3 weeks came where it went away and then it came back even worse and lasted for another 5 to 6 weeks. during those 5 weeks there were about 18 total hours where i wasn&#039;t bleeding. not to mention my back broke out which it&#039;s never done before and my mood was affected alot also. three days after it was inserted i cried for like 4 hours for no reason. i finally got it out yesterday and i couldn&#039;t be more relieved. the agony consumed me. i wish it worked for me like it did with others who had their period stop completely and no side effects. good luck! lol"
