birth control
"I've had this IUD in for about two weeks now. The insertion process was pretty uncomfortable, but there were only about 3 big cramps that just felt like bad period cramps. The entire process took about 5 minutes and I was able to get up and drive myself home immediately after. I took 3 Ibuprofen prior to coming in and that helped keep the cramps at bay for a while, but you will experience cramps for the first couple of days. They just feel like period cramps, no worse. The only negative thing I've noticed so far is an increase in acne where my skin was pretty clear beforehand especially around my chin and I've also been getting headaches every day since I've had the IUD inserted. Will update in 2 more weeks."
