birth control
"I LOVE my Paragard. It's the only form of birth control I've ever tried, and the only one I would ever consider. Make sure you have a Dr that is familiar with inserting this particular type of IUD. The first OBGYN clearly didn't have a clue what she was doing.  It was the most painful experience of my life and I ended up having to get it taken out a month later. The second Dr took five minutes to get it in, and I felt no discomfort whatsoever. Yes,  for the first six months my period was a lot heaver and unpredictible, but it's gone back to normal. No hormones for 10 years.... why not?? again... NO HORMONES."
