birth control
"I'm 22, no kids but after 5 yrs on pill I was ready for a worry free change. Insertion wasn't fun but very bearable. Planned Parenthood gave me ibuprofen before too. The first month, you are going to want to rip it out yourself. I had mind blowing, sweat inducing cramps throughout the day and a 6 month pregnant looking bloat I couldn't get rid of. Sexy.Lol. I thought I had made a huge mistake. Then, miraculously my period came with NO PAIN. I bled ALOT I'm talking 4-5 super tampons daily, the first 2-3 days, but literally painless bleeding. Even on or off pill I had always cramped. Now that my first period is over its easy breezy. Don't even know it's there. No bloat or pain. Just wait 6 weeks after insertion and everything will be great."
