    I had a regular old 7 for years, no problems. This very well maybe the hormones in the thing, talk to your doc. Why not just get a plain one? One of the good things about an IUD is that it doesn't have to mess with your natural hormones.

      paragard doesn't have hormones ... it's the copper iud, which doesn't use hormones like the iud mirena does.
