Birth Control
"Had my Paragard for 10 years and loved it! My periods did become heavier for the last two years, but only for a day or two. Insertion was painful, but my children were born via c-section, so that made a difference. The last six months I was diagnosed with anemia, believed to be due to the heavy menstrual bleeding. Since I had to have it removed anyway I decide to try the Mirena. Insertion was better with cervix softening meds. But within a few days I began having panics attacks, nausea, loss of appetite, severe dizziness, sharp pains in my abdominal, head, and chest. Immediately had the Mirena removed and symptoms improved. Going to give the pill a try even though I&#039;ve never tolerated hormones well. Consult for tubal planned in four months."
