Birth Control
"Got my Paraguard a little over a month ago.

Insertion lasted less than 30 seconds. It was mostly uncomfortable, not painful, instant cramps. Bearable with Advil.

Spotted and had cramps for a month afterwards, again bearable with Advil (and yes, I had sex, spotting wasn&#039;t heavy at all, I&#039;m talking like the lightest panty liner ever.)

First period was light and short. It was actually better than my regular period.

No more spotting and cramps after first period.

Second period, NO CRAMPS, even lighter, even shorter.

I forget I have it. 

Not pregnant. Sex is rad. No harmones. Going in for a follow up in a few weeks.

Loving life and loving my  Paraguard, I even convinced my friend to get one and get off the pill."
