I have a copper T. I can't do the hormone thing, so it's been great. My periods are heavier, and have more cramping, and last a couple days longer, but it's still worth it. Insertion is quick, and is uncomfortable for a second, but not much more of a big deal than a pap smear. I had one fall out several years ago, but I had had it inserted just after having my son, so my cervix was probably still open too far. I could feel that it wasn't right, and went to the doctor and got a new one. I'm keeping mine until my boyfriend gets snipped. Nothing is perfect, but this is the best method for me.
