"First and foremost, this is going to sound counterintuitive, but do not believe everything you read on the internet. The Kyleena insertion was hardly considered uncomfortable for me. I know everyone’s pain tolerance is different, but I’d like to think I have a low pain tolerance and I probably wouldn’t have been able to tell that the insertion was any different than a routine GYN visit. If you consider Pap smears excruciatingly painful, then you may just find this uncomfortable, however it is a quick 3 minute procedure with hardly any discomfort. Maybe, if anything, just some pressure.

Disclaimers: I just had it placed 45 minutes ago, without being premeditated, walked out and drove myself home. I am also Day 4 on my menstrual cycle."
