Birth Control
"I was put on birth control 1x in high school (pill) for acne. I was emotional and gained weight, I lasted a few weeks. 3 years ago I tried once again (Nuva Ring) to see if it would work for me, I lasted once again a few weeks. I was going on some meds that required I be on birthcontrol, I knew the only non hormone option was the Paragard. I have never had any children and I do have a very high pain tolorance. I had it inserted Sept 21. It hurt, but tolorable. I&#039;ve been spotting since. But it&#039;s better for me than gaining weight and crying all the time. It&#039;s worth the cramping and spotting. My period is heavier but it not unbearable. Cramps are worse, but manageable."
