I just want to let girls out there know that if you haven’t had kids, with this method you will feel 5Xs more stronger cramps than what you feel during your period. The insertion is PAINFUL. I almost fainted. Make sure that you eat something before going to your appointment to have it inserted. No one told me of the cramps that I would feel. Just letting you gals know. I still feel the horrible cramps. Also oregano tea helps with cramps.
