"just had the iud put in this morning. i didn&#039;t really feel pain more intense pressure like someone put something really heavy on my stomach, i thought i might throw up  but ended up being fine. i didn&#039;t have any medication beforehand besides the numbing lidocaine. it was pretty uncomfortable when she had to measure my uterus but i didn&#039;t even feel her put in the iud. all in all i would say it was maybe a 6/10 for 2 mins. walking afterwards definitely helped relieve some of the pressure/discomfort. i would describe it as having medium period cramps. i went right back to work and took an extra strength motrin and feel totally fine."
