I have a copper IUD that isn ' t available in the states , it ' s a five year one . It ' s unfortunate you have only one option over there . I love it . Never have to think about birth control other than checking the strings once a month . I had worse cramps and heavier bleeding for a few months , but nothing unmanageable , and it ' s back to normal now . I ' ve had it for 2 years . My partner can feeling the strings occasionally during sex , but nothing painful . It ' s better to keep them long as they are soft and pliant that way and spend most of their time curled around my cervix . When they ' re short , they wind up being spiky and more pokey . <| sep |> Since Sauron was defeated by a hobbit , and Hitler took like the three biggest Empires at the time , and a horrible cost in lives , I think Voldemort is by far less of a threat than Grindelwald . At least Grindelwald wasn ' t taken out by a toddler and later a teenager .
