Birth Control
"New to paraguard,  love it. Never had kids,  want to eventually. 

Insertion was not terrible, a pinch to measure then another pinch to insert &amp; done. I was prescribed 3 pills to soften the lining of my uterus &amp; I guess they worked. I took aleve before &amp; continued through the next 2 days.  

 I had my SO come with me for insertion &amp; I&#039;m glad I did.  I could have driven home but it was nice to be able to relax with my cramping &amp; not worry about driving.  I&#039;m very glad I took a half day at work!  Thermacare heat pads were my bff for the first 2 days.  I spotted on and off for 8 days but since have had regular bleeding &amp; some cramps.  
My body adjusted well to hormone free bc &amp; not having to remember a pill is liberating!"
