birth control
"I got my IUD inserted yesterday.. The procedure wasn't as painful as I thought it would be.. I would say it was more uncomfortable than anything. Pain was a 3/10. The cramps that I've experienced afterwards were probably the worst I've experienced personally considering I have never really had menstrual cramps during my regular periods. Pain rating for my cramps I would rate a 7/10. Not completely unbearable but it definitely made it difficult for me to drive myself home. The rest of the day I took ibuprofen and laid in bed with a heating pad and that seemed to help. Today I have minor cramping, nothing crazy. So far I'm happy with it. I'm still bleeding but it's mild bleeding compared to my regular period."
