Birth Control
"I&#039;m 27 (no children) and I&#039;ve been on the pill for 8 years. Insertion was really painful like a 9/10 and I had taken 600mg of ibuprofen beforehand! I scheduled it while I was supposed to be on my period (this is when your cervix is more open) but my period that month was just some spotting. They gave me an anesthetic spray on my cervix but that&#039;s it. Insertion was thankfully fast-3 min total, 15 sec of PAIN. The next 12 hours I had the worst cramps of my life! But after those 12 hours I was fine and just had 3 weeks of spotting. I&#039;m now 3 months in and have had no periods, no problems and I love it! My libido has also increased (compared to when I was on the pill). No side effects that I can tell!"
