"i had my kyleena inserted today. i read almost all the reviews on this site and feared the worst. my dr waited to insert until i had my period. kind of mortifying, but apparently the cervix is easier to open when you have your period.
all in all, it took maybe a minute for the entire process. the pain was bearable. i&#039;d say it was more uncomfortable than painful. i read everyone&#039;s experiences on here expecting it to be awful and before i knew it, the dr told me &quot;ok the worst is over.&quot; i didn&#039;t realize it was over and it already happened! so far i&#039;ve had some cramping but nothing a heating pad and glass of wine couldn&#039;t fix. if anything changes, i will update this post - but so far so good."
