"i had the kyleena inserted today and omg it hurt!!! i had the mirena inserted 6 weeks after giving birth so it was a breeze since my uterus was still somewhat open. this experience was horribly different for me, my youngest is now 5, so my uterus is not as open. i went in expecting a simple procedure like i had in the past, but no. my doctor did not advise me to take any pain reliever before hand. it was so painful i almost past out and/or threw up. the nurse had to give me a cold cloth and fan me. after it was finally over, maybe a few mins, which felt like an hour, i felt dizzy and sick. i had to stay in the room and lie down for a bit. i have been bleeding, clotting and cramping all day. anesthesia should be offered! i hope its worth it!"
