"i had kyleena i inserted 9/1. i was terrified but it wasn&#039;t bad at all. i took 800 mg of ibuprofen before. insertion wasn&#039;t painful at all. it wasn&#039;t pleasant but it was painful. lasted maybe 30 seconds. no kids, first iud i have had. i spotted around the time i should have had my period, now nothing. no acne. a little bit of cramping here and there the first week but i think i just really liked my heating pad."
