birth control
"Every woman is different so make sure you talk to your dr about what is best for you. But I personally don't think women who have never had a kid should get an IUD. I had an AWFUL experience with mirena (extremely painful placement) before I had a child several years ago . Experienced terrible pain after 30 days and had it removed. And bled for 6 months. But my Dr. said that since I've had a child I should have a different experience with an IUD because my uterus is larger after having a child. So I decided to get Paraguard. Since they're no hormones and it lasts 10 years. I had it placed today and it hardly hurt at all. Just some mild cramping. So far so good.. hopefully I continue to have a good experience."
