Birth Control
"I just had the Mirena inserted and although there were about two 30second moments of intense cramping it wasn&#039;t that painful at all.  I think there are a lot of misleading experiences on the Web.  Just remember that those who have had a very bad experience with a product are more likely to report it. Experiences are different for everyone. There will be a feeling of having pms cramps for awhile afterwards, so a heating pad + Aleve has been my best friends, and it is really manageable. Plus it is good for 5 years! I am very pleased with this.  I had to change because I developed a deep vein thrombosis on a long flight and was no longer allowed to take estrogen. I liked the pill too though, except for that experience."
