[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My experience wasn't positive, still interested?[/quote]

I'm not the OP but I would love to here about both positive and not so positive experiences.[/quote]

I got mine 2 years after my daughter was born.  Completely healthy, never had issues with birth control...not very painful for insertion and went home.

6 hours later, I was a lot of pain.  I have an extremely high pain tolerance and I was extremely uncomfortable for several days.  Maybe 4?

I had heavy periods, of 10-12 days (all heavy) which required an ultra tampon and heavy pad for 5-6 of those days changing every 2-3 hours.

I couldn't swim or workout (leaking) but the worst part were the migraine headaches and extreme cramps.

I had it removed and got the Mirana.  While my periods are still long (could be an IUD thing) they are so light I use no more then a panty liner and I have none of the other issues.

Good luck, I know some people love the Paraguard, but it was not for me.[/quote]
