birth control
"I had my procedure done recently and honestly it was quicker than expected. I experienced a little cramping within the first hour and then it went away. I haven't had any problems since. If you have a low tolerance for pain I would take ibuprofen about 30 mins before the insertion. You cannot measure some one else's experience with their placement because all of our bodies are different. If you are a person that experiences bleeding, it is likely you will see some spotting within the first 3 months. For people like myself I've been on BC for about 10 years, and I've always had a light menstrual so I knew I wasn't going to have very much spotting after my insertion."
