I really like it. I have only had one issue with it. The strings got left too long and my "yahoo" got irrated by them. Otherwise, no really periods or anything.
I like it much better then the Nuva Ring. It has a small amount of localized hormones so I don't feel all hormonal. I love that I don't have to think about it, that it lasts for 5 years (which saves me money on buying pills, etc).
The only thing I don't like is that I am still spotting occasionally, and I have had it for 3.5 months now.
In our parent's generation, IUDs got a bad rap because of an issue with the copper they used to use. It led to copper?poisoning and other problems. Now, even the copper IUD Paraguard is perfectly safe. It is the preferred method of birth control in Europe, from what I hear.??
