I swear to god that is every single tampon commercial in America.

The lawsuit is probably the least of these morons' worries. The legal penalties for counterfeiting are a lot harsher than those for wage theft.
Oooh my goodness do tell. Where did you read this scandalous goss?
(I was always a bit convinced she hero worshipped her father and Ma got a bit of a luke warm second.)
Ahhhhhh! I have been waiting my whole damn life for this! This is so exciting! Holy shit.
Do you live on the moon? Does everything have to be imported via space shuttle? Jeez! How is a person supposed to make a margarita!?
Talk to another obgyn about Skyla. I just got one last Friday. Much smaller than the Mirena, and while only good for 3 years, it is ideal for those of us who never had kids. It did hurt getting put in, but I was fine walking out and no real pain so far. Just a little crampy, but not much different from end of…
Not getting my period has been the biggest perk of the mirena. I love it!
I wanted the copper one. I did get my gyno to give me prescription (after she tried to scare me with how my boyfriend was PROBABLY slutting it up behind my back and catching STDs that would travel up the string and inflame my uterus and make me unable to have babies ever), but she said they couldn't order it at the…
I had a copper IUD put in at 28 before having any kids - best thing ever. I had it removed at 31 and had baby, then had another copper IUD placed afterward. Had it removed for baby number two and am currently halfway through that pregnancy. I had zero problems with the IUD. Not having the hormones to deal with along…
When ACA passed, I was chomping at the bit for my free one. They were cost prohibitive prior to women's health roll out. Still cheaper than a kid.
I'm baffled every time I hear these stories. A doctor can flat-out say "no, you can't do that" with safe, legal medical procedures? Like...docs telling women they can't get their tubes tied, or men they can't get the snip. What the hell?
I got a paraguard put in, which last 10 years, but you can get it removed at any point. I will definitely want kids in less than 10 years, so I just kind of assume I'll get it removed when I'm ready. Also, copper IUDs have the highest failure rate, so who knows, I might just end up pregnant before that. My best friend…
Well, they seem to be pretty popular with people who have them, but that's part of what makes it so remarkable that they're not a popular contraceptive option overall in the U.S.
You don't need to keep an IUD the full five years. You can have it in for a year or two or however long you want.
I got my Mirena after my second child. I was 36. I knew I didn't want any more kids but was hesitant to get my tubes tied because of the finality of that decision. This seemed like a perfect solution. From what I recall, insertion only cost about $50 and I'm set for 5 years. Insertion didn't hurt any more than a…
The pain of insertion really isn't sooo bad, and it only lasts a few seconds. I mean, yeah, it hurts....but then you get years of being worry free! The "I didn't know I was pregnant" stories are SUPER rare in reality (Mirena is 99.8% effective, although on the internet it might not seem like that), and if you're…
We once ordered a cab for the mile (possibly half mile) back to college from McD's because they were doing buy one get one free Big Macs and, obviously, we couldn't just share between us, we all had to have two, and were then too full to walk.
I once hailed a cab to take me through the McDonald's drive-thru because they wouldn't let me walk up. No judgment here.
Color me kooky. I thought it was funny. (AND I filled out my FAFSA every year when I was a student.) I guess I'm far enough away from student loans (other than paying them monthly), that it amuses me.
