birth control
"I'm 18 and got the paraguard in March. I'm sharing this because I think it's horrible, but then again I've never given birth, so my cervix isnt used to being opened- at all. But the insertion was insanely painful, I was crying and almost begging them to stop. Afterwards I was nauseous and very pale- I had to sit in the office for a good 20 minutes before I could walk again. I had to drive home and I was in so much pain I almost crashed. The pain didn't go away for 2 months- straight. It was constant, out of no where lying on the ground, curled in a ball pain. After two months, it started to get better. Except came my periods. It would be heavy, to the point where I bled through a super-plus tampon in 30 minutes. And now I'm in pain."
