Birth Control
"IUD is good at preventing pregnancy.

The side effects of this IUD has been awful. I have been on it for 4 months. I am 110lbs, 5&#039;4&#039;&#039;, healthy and I used to have heavy periods that last about a week. First month, I was bleeding heavily for more than 2 weeks, I also had brown discharge. I had cramps that occurred randomly throughout the month that was comparable to getting my IUD inserted, but it was very short whereas before getting this IUD, during the first 2-3 days of period I would have constant dull pain. Bleeding calmed down after, and now at 4 months, my period lasts more than a week. I get light spotting for 3-4 days, then bleeding for 4-5 then brown discharge for several days. Still have bad cramps and am emotional."
