birth control
"I had been having issues with the pill, forgetting to take it and decided to switch to an IUD. I had it put in March 25th 2017. Insertion was excruciating. It felt like someone was stabbing me from inside. It was very quick and I felt faint and weak the rest of the day. Motrin and ibuprofen worked to ease discomfort after. I went in the middle of my period (usually 5 days) and within a day of Insertion my period turned into 2 weeks of spotting. It's  now been about 2 months of adjusting. Sex is fine just need to be careful not to cause uterine spasms. I know I will get my period because there is about 1 day of irrational crankiness, followed by another day of cramps, which are sharper than ever before. Hoping this will level out soon...."
