birth control
"I've just had the copper coil fitted an hour ago. I thought I'd share my experience as I read so many stories about the coil and the effects and it made me so nervous to go. 

I'm 20 years old and haven't had any children (doctors mention it's less uncomfortable if you have had kids)  

Firstly, she clamped me open and measured me up (look up the process if you don't know what I'm going on about) this was slightly uncomfortable, but very bearable. She then pinched on my cervix which wasn't painful at all. Then the coil was placed. The whole process took 6-7 minutes. It wasn't painful just slightly uncomfortable. But I'm very satisfied and just suffering with a bit of cramping. But the paracetamol has sorted me out. Overall 10/10 experience!"
