Yes, I had the same response to the copper IUD as Just Jess. Except that my cramps were so unbearable for the first 6 months that i had to take a prescription pain reliever (ponstel). I even was so much in pain that I went back to my GYN so that she could make sure nothing was wrong. Apparently i am just very sensitive because I have never had children, my uterus just was very unhappy with the darn thing, hahaha. However, I hung in there, and almost magically, at the 6 month mark, the pain went away. I do have much heavier and longer periods, 1 year later, but the freedom from traditional bc methods is worth it to me.
