What To Expect After Treatment. You may want to have someone drive you home after the insertion procedure. You may experience some mild cramping and light bleeding (spotting) for 1 or 2 days. Do not have sex, use tampons, or put anything in your vagina for the first 24 hours after you have an IUD inserted.

So I'm just moody. You might be. I was on birth control that I stopped taking when I had the IUD inserted. Yeah so in that case, it may have been almost been withdrawal of your pill, and so now this is how you normally are. Oh gosh. So it may have been the lack of birth control as opposed to the presence of the IUD. Okay, that's fine.

Thankfully, it's been two months since I had the Mirena IUD (the low dose hormone IUD, as opposed to the hormone-free copper IUD ParaGard) inserted and I'm A-okay. But, in the weeks following the insertion I had a lot of questions, some of which I felt were crazy, silly, or just paranoid.

RE: Mirena IUD... How long is the cramping supposed to last after insertion? I got it put in on Thursday, 7-19, and it seems that the spotting and cramping are worse than when they put it in.

Other than that, if a woman who has an IUD, whether they've had it for two days or five years, if they suddenly have pain out of the ordinary or suddenly have abdominal pain, they should see their doctor, but it doesn't always mean that there's something wrong.

Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: well, they're supposed to put it in, while you're on your cycle. I have Mirena for 2 years now. The cramping and the periods will go away, but it depends on everyone. The first few months you might still get periods, and cramps. For about 1 year into it, periods stopped coming, but still some spotting every like 2-3 months. Now I don't really get periods, (when you go..pee :) and wipe just some pink...stuff, but its not a lot...its just when you wipe)...

An IUD can be a safe birth control choice for women who: 1  Have a history of ectopic pregnancy. 2  Both the copper IUD and hormonal IUD are appropriate. 3  Have a history of irregular menstrual bleeding and pain.

Since it's a one-time insertion that prevents pregnancy for three to 10 years depending on which IUD you opt for, as opposed to the Pill which requires you to take it every day, for me, choosing to get one was easy. But that doesn't mean the process didn't leave me with a lot of questions.
