Birth Control
"I chose this option after being on pills for over five years and a trial of Nuvaring for two months. I always forgot to take my pills and was getting too paranoid. Tried out the ring which was a horrible two months of mood swings and discomfort. Went in for the Mirena and had it inserted when the Dr discovered my uterus is too small for the Mirena. So I went back a week later and had the smaller version Skyla inserted. If pain is the only reason you haven&#039;t gotten an IUD, stop worrying! My nose piercing hurt worse than both insertions of Mirena and Skyla. Take 800mg ibuprofen before appt. and have a heating pad on hand. All I felt were cramps that were similar to usual menstrual cramps, nothing painful."
