birth control
"I just put the Para-Gard in 08/24/17. I was told to come in while I was on my period, During the procedure I felt a little discomfort nothing too bad. The mid-wife who did it for me was very gentle & told me when to breathe while she inserted it. Before inserting it she told me to feel the tip of the strings so I knew what it felt like if I needed to ever check to see if it was still there on my own! (super gross I know). After the procedure was finished I was given Ibuprofen (600) in case I had pain after. I was fine the whole day after with no pain, I worked a full 8hr shift after with a little bit of discomfort but again not too bad. I finished my period & I was still fine.  I have tested  with  my husband & was fine. He didn't feel a thing."
