Birth Control
"This was the worst birth control I ever tried. Only after 6 weeks of having it I started to lose hair and had two bald spots and I instantly gained 10 pounds! I also had a constant pelvic and lower back pains. I knew something was wrong when my clothes didn&#039;t fit yet I had been working out 5 days a week. The day I had it inserted I had actually lost 30 pounds since I had my son 3 months prior and then this IUD set me back! ParaGard appears to be a good choice for many women that do no want to take hormones. However the copper actually does affect your hormones and it can also have serious life threatening side effects as well. I ended up removing it"
