birth control
"I have never had an IUD before , I was quite nervous leading up to the appointment .  I was suggested to be on my period for the insertion. I have never had children and the Dr. Said it may be a little more painful due to that.  The actual procedure lasted 10 minutes, the insertion wasn't pleasant but not unbearable. It just felt like really intense cramps and then for about 30 minutes after the procedure I was very crampy. It's now an hour past the procedure and I feel fine , hopefully no cramps will set in later . Overall the experience wasn't that bad. Every person is different with their pain threshold."
