birth control
"
I got tired of taking the pill so I figured this might be a great alternative. Boy was I wrong.

Yes, it kept me from getting pregnant but it gave me bacterial vaginosis on every other week...and I only had it inserted for a month and a half!

I would get the BV treated, and it be right back like clock work. Also, my partner reported that the strings were uncomfortable and they poked him during intercourse.

Glad to report that 9 months after I have had it removed, I have not had a single stint of bacterial vaginosis and I am sticking with the pill."
