birth control
"I had Mirena put in about a week and a half ago. I'm 20 years old with no children. The insertion was the most horrible pain I have ever felt in my life. I don't have a high pain tolerance so my doctor used lidocaine, I can't imagine how it would be without it. During insertion I broke out in a cold sweat and was crying. Afterwards I was shaking so violently that I couldn't stand or walk for about 20 minutes. I experienced moderate cramping for a few days after and just took it easy for a while. I have gotten back to my normal routine now and it isn't a problem. Originally I had bleeding on and off but now its just mild spotting. While insertion was pretty bad, I would recommend it at this point and say that it was worth it."
