Birth Control
"Today marks 6 months with my Liletta IUD...which I love. Insertion was painful, as expected, but nothing I couldn&#039;t handle. Cramping and spotting lasted a few days after...and for the first 4 months I spotted lightly for 8-10 days, always 28 days apart...so I tracked those times as my period. Very minimal cramping aside from  the early cramps due to insertion.  Didn&#039;t take long for the strings to soften and curl up so my partner could not feel them during intercourse. My side effects do include weight gain and a struggle to lose it despite consistent exercise and healthy eating, and dry skin, and bloating/constipation."
