I had it for a year got it removed in October 2012 so we could try for another baby and my periods were a little heavier for about 2 or 3 months but returned back to normal

I had it and will be getting it again after this baby, I love it! Its the only non hormonal birth control that is out there, so it doesn't mess with your emotions or cycle and I'm pretty sure its safe to breastfeed on if you're breastfeeding! The insertion process didn't hurt me, I didn't even know it was being placed until she said okay you're all set, I thought she was still doing my pap smear lol just let me know if you have any questions, ill be happy to answer them!
