"i realize everyone is different but i don&#039;t think the insertion could be that bad for anyone especially if you take a little something. the day i was scheduled to have it inserted i fell and hurt my foot quite bad (found out later it was fractured) i decided to go to the appointment anyway so she could check my foot. anyway i was up on that table, hurt foot in a sling and still had her insert this iud just to get it done. it was not that bad and has been amazing at making my period just a trickle now but lasts over a week very slow but no other issues."
