"so i got the paragard inserted today at first i didn&#039;t think to have someone come with me but after reading all of the reviews, i quickly changed my mind. so as a result i brought my mother along with me and i&#039;m grateful that i did, the actual insertion it self wasn&#039;t bad but the thing that pushes the cervix is breathtakingly pain/uncomfortable and that&#039;s coming from someone who has a very high pain tolerance. after the insertion i had really really bad cramps,i was told that i was in so much pain because i&#039;ve never had a child. so beware, if you never gave birth, it will be pretty painful. i couldn&#039;t drive home due to the nausea and vomited a couple of times during the car ride. after the cramping levelled out,everything seems to be good."
