birth control
"Just got the Mirena inserted yesterday, and after reading a lot of negative reviews I thought I would share my experience. I was scared of the insertion procedure after reading so many terrible reviews about it being the worst pain ever, so I'm hoping this puts a lot of ladies mind at ease. I did have a moment of "oh my god" pain when the doctor was measuring my uterus. This was due to the fact that I have a 'tipped back' uterus. Not a big deal the doctor told me. That pain lasted ~10-20 seconds. It was a strange crampy/stabby/pinchy pain that I have never experienced before. Afterwards though, I have had minimal mild cramps and barely any spotting and have gotten on with life. Will try and update in 3 months."
