"i&#039;m rating an 8 based on the insert. i took 800mg of ibuprofen an hour prior to insertion. it was painful- 5 on a 1-10 pain scale. this lasted for less than 30 seconds. after, it was an odd feeling-but nothing more than feeling like you have to poop. i was light headed for 3 minutes after. i ate crackers and drank water while sitting. i&#039;d advise eating before. i went in hungry and feel that is what made me light headed. i drove after and went to the market. the first hour after- i had the &quot;poop&quot; feeling, just awkward. it&#039;s been 3 hours now and i feel totally normal. for now, i&#039;d highly recommend. different for everyone though- so take meds and don&#039;t make plans for the night. relax! will update soon."
