Birth Control
"I was on the pill for 5+ yrs with no issues until Jan 2016 when I was diagnosed with blood clots in both lungs. Bye bye estrogen birth control. My Dr at the time told me that Paragard was my *only* option.



It was inserted in May 2016 - probably the most painful experience of my life. Severe cramping during/following the insertion but the next morning I woke up feeling great, no pain. But that was the end of the good times with Paragard. I began bleeding all day everyday for the next 6 months. It was like the heaviest day of my period every day + cramps, headaches, stomach pains, etc. Ruined most of my panties &amp; barely had sex because it was so bad. 



Finally went to PP in Nov 16 and they removed it. I have Liletta now &amp; love it so far."
