birth control
"I've had paragard since November 2016. It is now June 2017. At first the pain was unbearable. I'm a very pain tolerant person who has numerous piercings and tattoos. When the doctors told me my period cramps would get worse I thought nothing of it. After getting it I realized what they meant. My pain was awful for the first 6 months. I could only lay down and would cry for hours. I also had to find a pain pill so I could function at my warehouse job. Finally after the sixth month my pain went from feeling like child birth to non existent. I still have a nice heavy flow but almost no pain. I know there are a ton of bad reviews but in the end you just have to try it out yourself. I am so happy!"
