I have an IUD and love it. Some breakthrough bleeding, but periods are usually lighter now than they were before I was on anything. I can't take BCPs because of my diabetes, so this and condoms are the only BC I've used. Had a little cramping the afternoon I had it inserted, but no worse than any other period. They timed the insertion right at the very end of a period.
My Gyno told me that typically he would prescribe an IUD to married women who were already done having children, which isn't me, but I'm monogamous and diabetic, so he was cool with it. Sounded like the biggest reasoning for doing it the way he said he typically would, is that the cervix would already have dilated at least once, making insertion a touch easier, but I didn't notice it as being a big deal anyway.
