Oh Christ almighty, I am in so much pain. The OBGyn told me the pain from my new IUD would be akin to menstrual cramps, but this is just excruciating. I've taken so much ibuprofen, but I still can't live my life, and this has been going on for DAYS.

She also told me i would experience some bleeding, but this is more than any period I've ever had, and for longer.

Can a woman more experienced than I am give me advice on what is normal, and how to inform my athletic program advisors of the situation?? I don't feel very good telling strangers my personal information (<a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glow.android.eve">Eve</a> excluded), especially men.
