Anyone with an IUD? What’s your experience been like?

I’ve been thinking about birth control and I honestly just can’t stand the thought of the pills and the added hormones and crap it adds to Your body and I’ve watched the video for Nexplanon and HELL NO! I don’t do needles and they’d have to knock me out to put that in! I’ve thought about the IUD it sounds so simple and great but I’m TERRIFIED of having that shoved into my uterus through my closed cervix it just sounds incredibly painful. And I’ve read horror stories about the effects it can have and that seems to be my biggest issue with each birth control is the god awful symptoms and side effects they can cause. I don’t have hardly any cramps EVER my period is always on time and other than increased acne at times and some mild headaches and a minor backache my periods are a breeze and I honestly don’t want to go from being A OK to being freaking miserable the whole time being on something! So I guess I just was curious about people’s experiences.
