Birth Control
"I got the Paragard put in today and I have never felt such bad pain in my entire life. I would consider myself to have quite a high pain tolerance, and I almost passed out while the doctor was measuring my cervix. All of the color drained out of my face and everything became sparkley. The doctor and her assistant were very helpful and walked me through the whole process, but nothing could prepare me for the pinching cramping pain. I am spotting just a little, and the cramps are still doing pretty bad. Ibuprofen wouldn&#039;t cut it for me so I had to take something a bit stronger with a glass of wine and a heating pad, but other than that the cramping is definitely a lot better than it was 5 hours ago."
