birth control
"I am on day 21. I am 27 years old, married, no kids. Getting it put in was the most painful thing I have experienced. There were two MAJOR cramps. The first when she measured me, the second when she put it in. I had to grip the table, squirm, and groan a little. I had a very bad few minutes after it was put in. I was dizzy and nauseous. I laid down, had water and I was better 20 min later. I had a few cramps the following days, some bleeding, and black gritty discharge. My doctor said was old blood from previous periods coming out. So far I've had a few cramps every few days and spotting. I freaked out at first because I couldn't feel the strings, but trimmed my nails and found them."
