birth control
"I'm 24. Married. No children. (still enjoy shopping sprees for myself only and wanted to guarantee that for the next 5 years)

Insertion: Nov. 16, 2011. Awkward/painful but mostly uncomfortable for less than 30 seconds. Never felt my cervix and uterus being touched so it makes sense. 

After: Followed by 2 hrs of intense, painful, crying cramps (and I don't cry easy). Then 6 weeks of non stop spotting. Very light but annoying because I had to use a panty liner. 
Now: LOVE IT! No gain in weight. No acne. No cramps. Still no period. I was scared of weight gain and acne stories but DR assured me after years of experience less than 5 women had those symptoms and due to postpartum depression (not my case at all)."
