"it took my gynecologist nearly forty minutes to place the liletta. i am 21, no kids, and i have a narrower than average cervical opening. i think this is why it took so long for him to place it and why it was so painful for me. it was literally the worst pain i&#039;ve ever experienced. i was in tears the entire time. today is only the second day i&#039;ve had it, and the light bleeding i had has been reduced to very slight brown spotting. the cramps are making it hard for me to want to keep the iud though. pre-iud, on the first day of my period i&#039;d get cramps so horrible i&#039;d be nauseous and couldn&#039;t eat anything. well, immediately after iud insertion i started having similar severe cramps that have yet to go away and nothing has given me relief."
