Birth Control
"I have had Paragard for a year and a half. When it was inserted, I did have pain but that was mainly just strong cramping.  I don&#039;t remember really bleeding afterwards. For those that say they have the worst pain in their life during insertion is probably because of the way their cervix sits. My DR explain that to me. Because a week before my period is supposed to start I get these horrible stabbing pains that are sometimes unbearable. They aren&#039;t constant and have actually lessened over time. My periods have actually gotten lighter only lasting like 4 days.. until now. My last period was like two weeks ago and then all of the sudden this week I started bleeding. I haven&#039;t read any reviews on this. So we will see what happens."
