birth control
"Got my IUD yesterday morning. Note: I did get prescribed a medicine to soften cervix. Procedure only took a few minutes, major pain came and went quickly. I'm used to bad menstrual cramps but this is next level. After the procedure I felt like using the restroom and I had HORRIBLE cramps for three hours, lost my breakfast. Afterwards the cramps came in waves. But it interrupted my sleep at 12 am and now it is almost 4 am. After two aspirins, three menstrual relief pills and a hot shower, the pain has not subsided. But my body is sensitive, don't let this scare you. There's a good chance it won't be like this for you. I still believe it was 100% worth it. 3 years of no pregnancy scares? Check."
