Birth Control
"Dang this word count! I&#039;d love to share my full experience, but here&#039;s the quick version. Insertion sucked, but I would do it again looking back. I was prescribed misoprostol and a strong NSAIDS to take prior to insertion. Very bad cramps for 5 to 6 hours.. Think of if you&#039;ve ever had to go home from school because of bad cramps in your teens. Brownish discharge for a couple days, then clear until my period. First period lasted about 16 days, pretty normal for an IUD. Second period was 4 weeks later for 5 days. Periods are now 3 months in between, only lasting 1 day of light spotting. No mood swings at all compared to pill. More body acne but it&#039;s manageable.  Slight cramps are very rare. Overall love it!"
