Birth Control
"Paragard Update: It&#039;s been exactly 2 months since I&#039;ve have my Paragard placed. Pros: don&#039;t have to worry about taking a pill daily anymore, no hormonal side effects, &amp; most importantly, no pregnancy :). Cons: I can feel the presence of the IUD during sex every now and then, or randomly if I cough or laugh. My Gyno/other IUD users I know said my body needs more time to adjust, but I hate feeling it. Another con is the heavy bleeding (went from 3-4 days pds. to 1 week pds.), but that should also adjust over time. I can&#039;t say I love it yet, but I&#039;m willing to give it more time. No birth control method is perfect, but you have to be willing to give it a shot if the pros outweigh the cons. In my opinion, nothing&#039;s worse than that pill!"
