birth control
"Uncomfortable during insertion but only lasted 5 minutes.  Took Advil for the next 24 hours for mild cramping.  My period ended 2 days later and now I feel great.  I'm really excited about light periods and minor cramps.  I used to suffer from heavy bleeding and cramps that felt like a kick in the gut.  My boyfriend is so happy to not have this huge interruption in our sex life.  I was on the pill till I turned 40 and had no problems.  I do notice slight mood swings and sleep heavier.  But it is so much better than giving over a week of my life each month to a dreadful period."
