"Ok, I'm giving a 10 for the experience and not the effectiveness because I just had it put in this morning, first time user. You MUST relax! Yes you will feel a cramp and a pinch, but it's not too much worse than getting scraped when you get a Pap smear or a body piercing. It's literally over in seconds. Keep repeating "it's only temporary" like I did, breathe, do not tense or clench anything, you will be fine! Once the lidocaine is applied, you don't feel the IUD going in. Take a Dramamine if you don't have xanax to help ease your nerves and Motrin. If you can, time your appointment on first or second day of period. You got this! It'll be over before you know it."
