birth control
"I chose to have the copper IUD because the pill made me very down and intense  & my partner and I aren't too keen on condoms.

Having not had kids, I found the insertion quite painful & It did hurt more than expected, a tiny swear word may have slipped out, but it was really over quite quickly.

Cramps lasted a few days,but I timed it so I  would get my period  the day after insertion, so it was a mix of the two I suppose.

My partner admitted he could feel the strings sometimes during "deep sex" but it wasn't enough to put him of.

Unfortunately, my IUD partially came out, and it was removed today. Unlikely to happen, but it did. I'm pretty bummed because it was the best, easiest, no side effects at all BC Ive used. RIP old friend."
