Birth Control
"I had many issues with hormonal birth control pills, and decided switching to a hormone free, extremely low maintenance option would be great. I&#039;ve had it roughly 3 months, and so far I love it. 



When it was inserted, the stabilizing of the cervix was the most painful. But after it was in I went home and was fine. My vagina was a little swollen for about a week, and I did take an ibuprofen the second day for swelling, but it wasn&#039;t necessary. 



The &quot;strings&quot; of the copper IUD are soft and my partner can&#039;t feel them. I&#039;m still spotting, but my periods haven&#039;t been heavier and only mild cramping (before I had none). If I wasn&#039;t still spotting and bleeding after sex I&#039;d have given it 10 stars, but my dr says spotting like this is normal."
