[quote=Anonymous]OP, there are a few threads on this in health and medicine you should check out, but here's my personal anecdote FWIW. I had a Paraguard copper IUD put in a little over a month ago, and I'm pretty happy with it. I was nervous as all get out, because I'd likewise heard tales of endless painful periods and cramping, and the idea of insertion was scary. I opted for this over Essure sterilization. Insertion turned out to be not too bad, and I found I'd wound myself up over nothing. I'm on my second post-IUD period, and it's definitely heavier, longer, and a little crampier, but nothing unmanageable. This is supposed to mellow out in a few months. I find I don't even think about it when I'm not menstruating, and that's a lovely thing. [/quote]
