birth control
"I read a bunch of reviews and was terrified when I walked into the office.  I really think part of the pain happens because you move/shift or expect it to be terrible and tense up. My doctor talked through my concerns and then we did it.  :)  It was fine.  With that said, I also took 2 Advil and 2 Tylenol an hour before it was inserted. 



The cramping was very slight... actually less than a period cramp and it was over in under 2 minutes.   I did find that I felt not great when sitting in a chair for the rest of the day. If you get it done in the morning, try to take the rest of the day off.  Have some ice cream, treat yourself to a mani-pedi while you binge watch netflix. :)



My Info: 0 kids, low threshold for pain, mid 20's"
