Birth Control
"I have had the iud for about 3 months now. The insertion was definitely unpleasant as my cervix was being stubborn, and I have had a child. The cramping during insertion was unpleasant I would say a 6 out of 10. I started bleeding and had a period that week. My normal periods before the IUD where extremely painful and minimal bleeding for 3 days then stop for 2 then bleed again for 2-3 days. With the IUD I bleed heavy for 3-5 days with minimal cramping. It is pretty awesome actually. The only issue I have had is a change in discharge, not bad but a thicker discharge than normal. My Dr. said that can be normal, I ran the gammot of tests just to be sure and its just my bodies reaction to the copper."
